Herefordshire Council set up a response team to identify and provide support to the most vulnerable residents in Herefordshire who were self-isolating or shielding at the start of the pandemic
More than 1,300 volunteers formed a support network co-ordinated by re-deployed council staff, who act as link workers, connecting requests and volunteers.
If people need help now, the council’s wellbeing information and signposting Herefordshire website provides information and links to local services that are offering food delivery, groceries and online activities.
The council says it is continuing to provide a safety net if people have gaps in people’s support plan or if they are unable to call upon help from family, friends or the local community.
