On hand at that point to give reassurance (5,5)
I believe the answer is:
there there
'give reassurance' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.
'on hand at that point' is the wordplay.
'on' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'hand' becomes 'there' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'at that point' becomes 'there' (I've seen this before).
'there' put next to 'there' is 'THERE THERE'.
'to' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
