With demand for fruit and veg pickers growing there is a greater risk of worker exploitation by illegal gang masters. Charlotte Smith speaks to Action with Communities in Rural England about the challenges village halls face before they can all re-open, and she finds out about a group of auctioneers who are taking to the phone lines to support farmers who are feeling the impact of social isolation.
