I have received this information from the Citizens Advice Bureau in Wokingham:
Your communities are strong and resilient. There are simple things you can do to help them continue to thrive!
1. Check-in on vulnerable family, friends and neighbours
Just helping them with their shopping and checking they have everything they need
can make a huge difference. Know someone self-isolating? Call or text them to check that they’re ok.
2. Volunteer with a local charity
Wokingham Borough Council is working with local charities to provide community
support during this difficult time.
To volunteer, visit the Wokingham Volunteer Centre website at www.volunteerwokinghamborough.org.uk.
Do you need support?
If you are in need of help or support, reach out to your community. You are
not alone!
1. Call on your family, friends, neighbours or those you trust
Our communities are showing solidarity and community spirit during this difficult time. Most of us will have family, friends or trusted neighbours who can help. Just reach out!
2. Call on your local charity
If you are already in contact with a local charity, call them.
3. Call on your community & voluntary sector
Wokingham Borough Council is working with local charities to provide a community
response for those who don’t have support and need advice or practical help. This is not an alternative to the NHS or social services.
It is local residents looking after each other. Citizen’s Advice is working with local
charities. Call them on 0300 330 1189 (if prompted enter 0118 978 7258)
or contact them via admin@citizensadvicewokingham.org.uk.
