Community Support Scheme – Here To Help!

Are you self isolating or in need of assistance?  Walford Community Support Scheme is a group of local volunteers who give their time to help anyone in need.  We are working in any way we can to help people in need in our Parish.

How can we help?
These are some of the things we can help with:

Telephone contact
Help with shopping and deliveries
Collecting prescriptions
Help with pets

If you need assistance phone 07493171430
or
email: community@walford-pc.org.uk

We endeavour to always be available to answer the phone, but at times the mobile signal can be very weak. If you get voicemail, please leave a message and we will get back to you as soon as we can.

Scarecrow Challenge

All over the parish and surrounding areas Scarecrows have been appearing to brighten the day of passers by, and show support for Key Workers and Volunteers.

Here is the latest by Jackie and Alan on Leys Hill.  If you are passing by on your Exercise Walk or on the way to do some Essential Shopping or Work stop off for a minute and tie on a coloured ribbon to show your support for our wonderful NHS workers.  It’s opposite CATS entrance.

Stay Safe!
