Lockdown Crafting & Repairs

During these challenging times it is even more important that we find ways to come together. Since our wonderful little repair cafe has had to be put on hold, we thought it would be lovely to set aside an hour or two to craft and repair together, in our own homes, this Sunday 29th March from 2pm. If you would like to join us, please download the Zoom app and click on the link below.

We have 40 minutes free on Zoom but once this expires, you can rejoin the session by clicking on the link again.

Make yourself a cuppa and come join us with your knitting, crochet, needlework or whatever you are working on. We'd love to see you!

If you want to rally the world to your cause, think like a little bird and tweet. Hospitals and doctors are reaching out via social media to ask for mission-critical help in solving the shortage of N9...

Have updated the COVID-19 Resources page and the Things To Do page with useful stuff I've come across in the past few days.
I've added more businesses offering local delivery, including Wallow & Root, Mounts Bay Dairy, Jumunjy Thai Street Food Stall, Whealdream etc. On the Things To Do, we've been adding things for kids to do while schools are closed, like the free Amazon Audible service announced yesterday.

Please do get in touch with anything we've missed!

Folks, while the Coronavirus situation develops, we are gathering together some of the excellent information from various sources (including the Mutual-Aid Facebook groups). This is mainly so that information is not lost as it scrolls down people's timelines.

The page is at an early stage and not yet joined up to our Home Page, but you can jump straight to it at the link below. The types of information we are hoping to share are:

- links to sources of support / opportunities to volunteer
- information about local businesses providing help and support to customers and the community (with links)
- ideas and links for things to do while stuck at home
- links to uplifting and heartwarming stories

Please do check out the page -- the more input it gets from you, the better it will be for everyone.
