CAREbank News May 2021

 


UPDATE ON OUR COMMUNITY HUB

As we approach being allowed to meet up inside again in bubbles of up to six people, we would like to invite anyone interested in learning more about what will be available at our new hub, to consider booking a visit to Little Hadham Village Hall. 

Our inter-village Hub will be based out of Little Hadham Village Hall and directly connect to our Patient Participation group at Much Hadham Health Centre. It will be a very safe and friendly space for any resident living along the Ash Valley to explore all kinds of helpful health and social connections both face to face and online. It will be especially useful for anyone seeking to use digital technology to stay safe and connected to services such as NHS, Govt, charities and local activities. You will be assisted by volunteers from all our villages working together. 

Contact Claire on 07595 674241 or Jan on 07710 325363 for more information or check out the CAREbank website
