Bridford Parish Council are also in the process of putting together a Parish Emergency Plan which will help to ensure that everyone knows what to do, who to contact and how best to help in the event of any type of emergency, including weather related.
Acorn Community Support funding
Bridford Parish Council recently put in an application to Devon County Council locality fund to support Acorn Community Support to widen their offer to parishioners in Bridford and the wider Teign Valley who are carers and were delighted to receive £1100 for Acorn to use to set up regular carer peer support groups. Many thanks to County Councillors Jerry Brook and Frank Letch who supported our application.
