GET HELP

1 March 2021: demand for the Storrington Community COVID-19 Support Hub has now dwindled to the point where it is not needed and so for the time being the Hub is closed. Be reassured that the infrastructure of the Hub is still there, and should it be needed in the future then it can be up and running in just a few hours.

If you are in need of help, support is available from the West Sussex Covid-19 Community Hub or the NHS Volunteer Responders.

West Sussex Community Hub
For people with urgent support needs, for example, if you are going to run out of food or medicine in the next three days, contact the West Sussex Community Hub:
call 033 022 27980 (8am to 8pm, 7 days a week, including Bank Holidays).

NHS Volunteer Responders
If you are shielding, vulnerable for another reason, a carer, or required to self-isolate, you may be eligible to receive supporting services from NHS Volunteer Responders:
call 0808 196 3646 (8am to 8pm, 7 days a week).

 

A number of local businesses may be able to provide delivery or take-away of everyday necessities – this list will be updated as we hear of new suppliers:

Local suppliers offering home delivery and take-away
Also check The Isolation Inn, a local Facebook Community page with a collection of menus, delivery information and contact details for local restaurants, pubs and businesses offering food deliveries.

Supermarkets Covid-19 arrangements
