CROSSPOOL COMMUNITY HUB

WORKING WITH EVERYONE IN CROSSPOOL

In conjunction with Voluntary Action Sheffield, based at
St Columba’s Church office in Crosspool 0114 267 0006

If you are, or you are aware of any friends and neighbours , self-isolating or simply struggling to cope with the current unprecedented situation, we have a team of unpaid volunteers registered to help.

We are a flexible resource waiting to adapt to and help as best we can with whatever circumstances may arise during the pandemic and in its aftermath.

At the moment we have a list of local shops that can help with the supply of food and certain other products by delivering to you. To prioritise those self-isolating or who just need some help, we have been working with – e.g. Greencross Chemist, Phil James Butchers, GT News, Spar/Post Office, and Tesco Express. Should demands on these services become stretched, we will step in to help with deliveries/collections.

We have DBS checked volunteers who will be happy to simply talk on the phone as we are becoming aware of people’s increasing sense of loneliness due to the current situation. And this may well be an increasingly important need over the coming months.

We are open to try and help whatever the problem. (Some of us are experienced dog-walkers if you are not able to leave home). Please feel free to ring us, even if you are not sure if we are the right people to help. We are happy to listen and try to meet whatever needs arise.

The office is staffed from 9am – 12noon, Monday – Saturday, but there is a 24-hour answerphone TEL: 01 14 267 0006
