CREDITON Town Council is offering support to those who need it during these challenging times.

This may entail shopping requests or prescription collections for those that are shielding, vulnerable or self-isolating.

However, the council also understands that during these challenging times, feeling alone and missing the interaction with friends, family or with other shoppers in the High Street is also a reality.

If you feel that the council could help support you with a friendly telephone call to break up the day, a chat about the weather or just someone to talk to, please feel free to contact the council and someone will be happy to help.

“You are not alone, as a community we are all here to support each other,” said a council spokesperson.

Please telephone the Town Council office number 01363 773717 and ask for Lisa or call Cllr Louise Martin on 07519 930040.
