Norfolk’s hundreds of village halls and community venues are often at the heart of local life and, at this difficult time, it’s more important than ever that their value is realised. The National Village and Community Hall Survey deadline has been extended to 30th April to allow everyone to participate.
It's estimated that, during the Coronavirus pandemic, UK households are spending an extra 25 per-cent on their electrcity usage and an additional 17 per-cent on gas. Now is a good time to seriously look at switching energy provider to get a better deal.
We would appreciate your help in completing two key surveys, one or both of which may be relevant to your work scenario:
One survey helps us assess how the county’s voluntary, community and social enetrprise groups and organsiations are coping. The other is aimed specifically at community buildings and village halls.
This information is designed for informal voluntary groups, to help them maintain the safety of the volunteers they are managing during the COVID-19 crisis, as well as those they are trying to help.
Village halls and community buildings are facing particular challenges as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. We have compiled some helpful – and essential – information.
Norfolk Community Foundation has set up the Covid-19 Community Response Fund to support our local charities working hard on the ground to keep vulnerable people safe and well.
A number of organisations have shared advice on staff and/or volunteer management in relation to the outbreak of the Coronavirus. This article summarises some of the best information sources. Last Updated 27-03-2020.
