Coronavirus -Volunteer in our community
During this time of national crisis with the outbreak of the Coronavirus. Let us pull together as a community and help each other through this.
Let us reach out to the elderly, the vulnerable and those who will find periods of self-isolation mentally draining and lonely.
This is a call to arms. Whether it is providing support to those feeling lonely during this period, going out to collect groceries for the elderly, or prescriptions for those who are house bound.
We are looking for volunteers, community groups, businesses with vans/transport, people with IT Skills and people with a listening ear.
Let us work together to get through these challenging times.
Many thanks for all you are going to do for our area.
Best wishes,
Andrea
