Community Support...

If you – or someone you know – needs help right now, we’re here for you. Whether you’re feeling lonely and isolated or need someone to assist you with essential deliveries during self-isolation, our amazing Kindness Volunteers are ready to help you.

From friendly ‘kindness’ calls to check in on you regularly, to dog-walking, shopping or medication deliveries, our Kindness Volunteers are here to make sure you can stay safe and well in your own home.

Please fill out the form at https://www.chss.org.uk/coronavirus/i-need-help to let us know how we can help you, and we’ll match you up with a local Kindness Volunteer as soon as possible.
