Statistics for **1 October 2020**.
Daily stats plus a rolling average graph. There are still 2k delayed tests, which aren't reflected in the charts.
There are restrictions in Denbighshire, Flintshire, Conwy and Wrexham (in addition to South Wales from today).
PHW states, “We are also seeing an increase in the number of people who are seriously ill and have been admitted to hospital with COVID-19.
If you happen to go to Aberystwyth, there is a known cluster around the University. Please strictly adhere to regulations if you go that way.
Llani Pantri has surplus food this evening, not required by our clients & our freezer is full! To avoid food waste please feel free to help yourself to any of the bread, salad or veg items in the picture - all best before 30 Sept so may need outer leaves checking, bread refreshing in hot oven, etc. They are available from our entrance hall, opposite Spar until 8:45 pm this evening. Look out for similar posts as we sometimes have items we need homes for 🙂
New shop in town.
great to see a shop open in the town for a change!
Where abouts is this in Llani?
Next door to the Fish Deli. Great Oak Street.
Worth a visit
Very glad to have you next door.
**The faces behind the phone support line.**
It came to me, that many of you would have met our on the ground volunteers delivering shopping etc, but I thought I would share the faces that answer your calls for assistance.
On the 16thMarch I put a call out asking for volunteers who would be prepared to take shifts in answering the support line, logging calls and dispatching volunteers, and by the 19th March the “Dreamteam” was formed and we helped our first callers. To date we have taken nearly 1000 calls and made arrangements for in excess of 1500 deliveries of shopping, prescriptions, hot meals, dog walking and more
For the first 12 weeks our phoneline was manned 12 hours per day – We had 15 volunteers who covered 21 shifts between them, it worked like clockwork thanks to their enthusiasm, willingness to give their time, and selflessness. All of them share a desire to help others, and nothing was too much trouble.
As demand reduced, and some of the volunteers have returned to their employment, from the middle August we reduced the hours the telephone is manned to 9am till noon Monday to Saturday, these are still the hours of operation. We still have a team of 8 of the original volunteers answering calls, with the others ready on stand by if demand needs to increase.
As a team from many different backgrounds who’s paths may never have crossed, Covid 19 threw us together, and over the last 6.5months we have become great friends and support to eachother.
I would like to thank each and everyone of them for their hard work, dedication, friendliness and total willingness to help. I know that many of our callers would echo the same message.
