Coronavirus Help

The Eastington Volunteers Coronavirus helpline phone number is now closed – the number of calls dwindled to zero – hopefully because everyone has found a way to access any help they need.
However, help is still available through Facebook : ‘Eastington Coronavirus Community Volunteers’ or ‘Love Eastington’ – there are still plenty of willing volunteers in Eastington!

For help with shopping if you are self-isolating, the Co-op will take orders over the phone for later collection or a volunteer delivery can be arranged. Call them on 0800 435 902.

The Old Badger Inn is also offering help in the form of it’s weekly free meals volunteer service – see the article here.
