URGENT: Volunteers needed
We urgently need volunteers to help vulnerable neighbours during this challenging time. The support needed will not be demanding and may include picking up shopping, posting mail, making a friendly phone call or similar things.
To help, email your name, address and telephone number to rescomsco-od@gavinton.net or send a private message to the Gavinton Community Facebook page. For further information please read through this PDF.
