CORONAVIRUS – HELP FOR THOSE “SELF-ISOLATING” WHO NEED HELP WITH SHOPPING
AND/OR COLLECTING MEDICATION
The situation with Coronavirus is changing rapidly so these arrangements may well have to be reviewed.
Government and NHS advice is available as follows:
NHS: https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/coronavirus-covid-19/
Government information: https://www.gov.uk/government/topical-events/coronavirus-covid-19-uk-government-response
It is now likely that significant numbers of people in the valley will have to “self-isolate”. The churches and other groups are working together to try and ensure that those who may need practical help with shopping , medication etc. in this situation can receive help if needed.
Details will be made updated locally on noticeboards, village websites etc where possible – see the following:
