Volunteers Needed for Lockdown Response in Whitby

Volunteers are needed to help with the community response to lockdown in Whitby.

Coast and Vale Community Action has been commissioned by the county council to help with things like shopping and the collection & delivery of prescriptions.

Mel Bonney is CAVCA's Chief Exec.

Mel says the system worked well in the first lockdown.

Mel is asking anyone who can help to get in touch.

"We’re in urgent need of new volunteers to help with our COVID-19 response in Whitby. If you’re interested in doing some shopping and the collection & delivery of prescriptions, please contact us via the COVID-19 telephone helpline on 01723 362205 or email ccr@cavca.org.uk"
