COVID-19 Support

The pandemic may be out of the news but it is still very real and we all still need to be careful of contact with others, especially those that are vulnerable.

We are in unknown territory as far as what happens next so we need to ensure that we not only look after ourselves and loved ones but also that veterans and their families are not forgotten.

I am sure that you have all received more than enough information to ensure personal safety and the safety of your immediate family but I would ask that you not forget old comrades who live near by.

I am not expecting you to put yourselves at risk of infection but only that you hold out a friendly hand (figuratively speaking) to ensure that they are not in need of support.

Below is a list of support details should you identify someone in need additionally, support can be obtained from:

Alconbury - Swynford Stores, 01480272421 for supplies, Marc Liley 0749703048
