Sports stars and clubs across the world continue to help their local communities – and find new ways to amuse themselves – during the coronavirus pandemic.

Here, the PA news agency looks at some of the best examples from April 29.

Football

Newcastle have joined forces with their club foundation as staff and volunteers work to support elderly and vulnerable supporters.

Around 1,000 season-ticket holders will receive telephone calls, with priority given to those deemed to be in need of support.

Head of the Newcastle United Foundation Steve Beharall said: "Many people are struggling at the moment during this extended period of self-isolation and our buddy scheme aims to reach out to as many vulnerable adults as possible.

"We have a list of 988 supporters on the buddy call system and each staff member will work through the list that they have been provided with, offering support in a similar way to what we have done with our walking footballer group.

"I am immensely proud of how our staff have responded and we will continue to look at how we can expand the scheme to reach as many of our older supporters as possible."
