Avon Dassett is setting up a support network to get our community through the coronavisus situation that is facing us over the next weeks and months.  This is being coordinated by Avon Dassett Parish Council.  

As the government’s guidelines continue to change and more people are either ill or required to self-isolate, there is likely to be a growing need for practical support to be provided to residents.  This may include collecting shopping or necessities, collecting prescriptions, or just offering a regular call to ensure that someone is alright. In offering this support, we will follow government guidelines to ensure that the risk of passing on the virus is minimised, for instance by leaving shopping on doorsteps if required. 

A dedicated phoneline has been set up to act as a central point of contact on 07860 702749. In addition, a central email account covid19@avondassettparishcouncil.com is also available for use.

Please do not use the clerk or chair's contact details for issues / needs relating to coronavirus.

It will be helpful for the group to understand the overall health of those in the village. We would be grateful, therefore, if you could share with us if you are showing symptoms, are self-isolating or have been tested positive for coronavirus at any point.
