Useful Information
Hello Churchtown Friends & Neighbours
Let's keep safe and well and look after each other, hope the following may help you
Communication - Keeping in Touch
We have a closed WhatsApp Group Churchtown Community (formerly Churchtown Bloomers) we have a current membership of 21 which gives us a really good network of friends in our community, if you would like to be added to this group and you have WhatsApp, message me, Karen on 07530 817098.
The main purpose of widening this group is to support each other and our neighbours, our aim is simply to keep in touch, share positive experiences and provide practical help when needed, particularly to those who have no access to social media or internet.
Alternatively private message us on Churchtown in Bloom Facebook Page and we can reply to your messages in confidence
Although we can all help each other and may be able to help with a little bit of shopping its important to make sure we remain safe ourselves, and no doubt fewer of us may be able to get out to the shops in the coming weeks. It's important to have back up and options to help us.
The below are some useful contacts to assist with essential services and deliveries.
