Colette Inman has been appointed the new Hub Coordinator after Sharon Price stepped down from the role a few weeks ago. A huge thank you to Sharon for her time and talents and a warm welcome to Colette who moves from the call handler role to this important role in managing the hub.
Also a huge thank you to Kate Allen for taking on the call handler role on a more permanent basis.
Hub Manager, Nikki Moon, is now gainfully employed by South Warwickshire GP Federation supporting the vaccine rollout in South Warwickshire so having Colette and Kate in these two important roles will ensure the hub continues to operate in a way that supports our community.
The decision was taken by the hub trustees to suspend volunteers being used to transport clients to appointments. It was felt that the new strain of the virus and the new lockdown meant this was a risk to both volunteer and client. Instead we offer to support those who require transportation by referring them to VASA transport service, who are a charity based in Stratford-upon-Avon and are geared up to support people’s transport needs in a COVID-19 safe way.
Anyone in need of transport can contact them direct using www.vasa.org.uk
