NEW: (22.06.20) From: Norfolk ALC Well-Being Task & Finish Group on behalf of: Norfolk Resilience Forum – Community Support Postcard
Despite the lifting of government restrictions around
social contact, there are still many people in the county who are lonely,
unsupported, isolated and digitally excluded and we need your help to get the
message out that, if people call the Norfolk County Council call centre we will
be able to support them to access services. We are also aware that as people
return to work, and the number of community volunteers reduces, a central
support will be helpful to a number of people.
More information here, including link to downloading a copy of the postcard for residents that you may know who do not use a computer. There is also a link to a card for carers who may need extra help.
South Norfolk Council is asking for stories of those who have helped in their districts since lockdown began. People can share stories online via www.south-norfolk.gov.uk/covidheroes or through social media. Those who are then named a ‘Community Hero‘ will be recognised at their next ‘Community at Heart’ and ‘Community Champions’ awards.
NEW: (09.05.20):Norfolk County Council has made the decision to re-open eight of its larger recycling centres on Monday 11 May. This follows the Government’s updated guidance issued on Tuesday by Defra (Department of environment, food and rural affairs) which advised that local authorities should seek to retain access to HWRC services for their residents to dispose of waste. The sites reopening are Dereham, Thetford, Caister, Ketteringham, Mile Cross, King’s Lynn, Mayton Wood and Hempton Recycling Centres. All twenty of Norfolk’s recycling centres have been closed since 25 March 2020 when the Government restricted travel outside the home to limited essential purposes. The guidance issued by Government this week states that householders should only take waste to a HWRC if it cannot be stored safely at home and no alternative disposal options are available. So we are asking residents to only make a trip to a site if their waste and recycling is posing a risk to their health and safety. More information here
