Church Fenton Parish Council Covid-19 Action Group

We are here to support and keep our community safe. We must stress the importance of staying at home, only leaving when absolutely necessary. All vulnerable groups and families with symptoms must self-isolate to protect our community. We continue to work with Tadcaster Community Action Group who are providing us with support.

For up to date information and to request support, please contact us in the following ways:

If there is anything that is not covered in this leaflet, or any particular help and support that you feel you require, please get in touch. Stay Safe and follow government guidelines.

RED CARD TO REQUEST HELP

Firstly, and probably most important of all, we want to look after our neighbours. Your neighbours and our volunteers will be checking on everyone to make sure we are all safe. If everything is okay (you don't have to, but could put something green at your window); BUT if you need help, please put something RED against your window where people can see and someone will come to check on you. Anything red, (tea towel, t-shirt etc) will let us know, you need support (If you feel comfortable, also write your phone number in the window so that someone can call you). If we all do this, we can all help each other through these 'unprecedented times'. If you see a RED signal but are unable to help, please call 07795071741. We can deliver a red card through your door if required. Please call the Clerk. Thank you and Keep Safe.
