Another few months have passed by and we continue to develop new fundraising ideas and consider how best to support village residents. We hosted another enjoyable online quiz & have welcomed some newcomers to the villages, and some new babies, with small gifts. Please let us know of anyone who has been unwell in hospital and would like a small treat to brighten their day.

 

In the last Village Link, I mentioned the launch of our education and training award. Having listened to feedback, we have lowered the qualifying age range slightly to include young people aged 16+. If the award could support you, please email us for an application form from 12th August for those starting in autumn 2021. You will need to evidence your place and indicate what resources you need financial support for.

 

We have had some enquiries regarding the car ambulance service and when this may be available again to those who need transport to hospital and doctors appointments. We are working hard to re-establish the service as soon as we can. After more than a year of not being able to operate, you will appreciate there are administrative and procedural matters we need to give time to ensure the safe and smooth running of the service. We know residents really value the help and we are working hard to make this possible again. If you are interested in becoming a volunteer driver with us, please get in touch.

 

Like many charities, the opportunities we have had to raise funds has been incredibly limited in the last year. Please support us by registering with Amazon Smile and ‘Give as you Live’ which enable us to collect a small donation whilst you shop at no cost to you.

And finally, with the uncertainty around restrictions, we were unsure if we would be able to host a village day fete this year. The fete takes much planning and organisation for which we haven’t had the opportunity to do during Covid. Instead, we will be holding a ‘Village Picnic’ on Saturday 4th September where we hope people will enjoy the opportunity to reconnect and enjoy each other’s company after what has been a very challenging time. We hope to see you all there. More details will follow.
