Support from your local parish/town council
There are lots of helpful links to support and guide you through these challenging times on many of the local parish or town council websites within the Tamar Valley.
From food & medicine deliveries and help to walk your dog, to a friendly voice at the end of a phone or even online church services, here are just some of the ways in which they can help you
Supporting local food providers
Many local independent businesses across the Tamar Valley are working around the clock to provide delivery services, and to ensure they have a good stock of essentials, to help our community access food. Thank you so much!!
Here is the list of the businesses known to us, as of this morning (24 March). Please check with each business, as things are changing by the hour.
Please let us know if you’ve heard of others, so we can help spread the word and support our local businesses. Thank you.
