*YOUR HELP IS URGENTLY REQUIRED TO IDENTIFY THE MOST VULNERABLE IN OUR COMMUNITY*
From next week around 10,000 food boxes will be delivered as part an effort between the Dept for Communities and Councils to support the most vulnerable in our community during the COVID-19 lockdown.
This vital service will ensure that those most in need who do not have a support network of family and friends to help them through this emergency, will have access to basic food supplies.
Food suppliers will provide food boxes to local councils. The packages will include items such as tinned food, dried food and soap alongside some fresh fruit and bread.
The boxes will then be delivered by local voluntary and community organisations to those people who have been identified as being most vulnerable during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The freephone COVID -19 Community Helpline provides help to those in vulnerable groups to access information, advice and guidance in relation to COVID-19
