Volunteer Help

With the outbreak of the coronavirus, the Parish Council appreciate that there are members of the community who will need some additional help, particularly those in the most vulnerable groups that the Government have recommended introducing social distancing measures to reduce social interaction between people.

These include people aged 70 or older (regardless of medical conditions)

And those under 70 with an underlying health condition set out on the Government website (ie anyone instructed to get a flu jab as an adult each year on medical grounds) and those who are pregnant.

We have had a number of volunteers who have kindly come forward and offered to help.

Below is a list of the volunteers, contact numbers and their location in Boreham. If you are vulnerable and need help with shopping etc you can contact your local volunteers direct.

Please note, we have not carried out any checks on the volunteers although some have informed us that they are DBS checked. You should bear this in mind before contacting anyone and make sure that you ask for identification. Unless the volunteer is known to you do not hand over any money until after the goods have been delivered to you and ask for a receipt. Volunteers will not come into your home.

The latest version of this list will be available at the Boreham Parish Council website www.borehamparishcouncil.co.uk or the Facebook page.
