The Community Call – Advice and contact information for your county Part 1
We’re in this together.
As part of the Government response to the COVID-19 crisis, your local authority (council) has established a COVID-19 Community Call Forum. Your local forum works with State agencies and community and voluntary groups to provide supports or services to any vulnerable person who needs them.
Your forum brings together different organisations to provide important services like:
- collection and delivery of essential items like food, ‘meals-on-wheels’, household items, fuel or medicine (in line with guidance)
- support if you are experiencing social isolation or are cocooning
If you need help, if you know someone who needs help, or if you would like to offer help, please use the numbers or email for your local authority (council).
You can find the details on a large version of the leaflet in a PDF file, Click here
