Although movement is now less restricted for most, there are likely to be some people who would benefit from continuing support - for a multitude of potential reasons, which may have nothing to do with the Covid-19 coronavirus.
You may find it problematic to secure essential supplies or feel concerned that you may get into difficulty, Furzehill Residents Association can arrange neighbourly support. You may need (or know of someone who needs) help with shopping, collecting a prescription, dog-walking or another domestic predicament. You may feel unwell or a little cut off from the world. For all such circumstances Furzehill Residents Association can arrange some neighbourly support.
So please do not hesitate to let us know who you are. You can contact the people listed below at any time.
