If you are self-isolating and are in one of the at-risk groups (over 70 or with underlying health conditions) we have mobilised a support team that can help you with:
Picking up shopping
Posting / collecting mail
Collecting medicines
Urgent supplies
A friendly chat
Because of the spread-out nature of our community we have divided our volunteer recruits into "sub-areas" to facilitate assistance within a manageable distance / amount of households.
Below you will find a list of volunteers in your area who you can call on to help. In the first instance, please call a member of your area team but everyone below is willing to help so if you are feeling in need DON'T BE SHY and reach out by whichever way suits you best.
IF ANY OTHER VOLUNTEERS WOULD LIKE TO OFFER THEIR ASSISTANCE PLEASE CONTACT louisarogers@gmail.com stating your area, name & contact methods, or call her on 01852 316 283 / 07968 077 605
All volunteers should read the Argyll & Bute guidance on volunteering safely at this page:

THANK YOU to all our community volunteers AND all those who are no doubt, as usual, lending a hand and helping out their neighbours in lots of different ways.
