Kilbeagh Community Alert Group (KCAG) extend a huge thank you to all their 16 First Responders who provided “Community Call” during the last Covid-19 level five lockdown earlier in the year.
They contacted over 100 elderly, vulnerable or people living alone in our community on a daily/bi-daily or weekly basis. They provided a friendly chat, ear and advice and helped with deliveries during this very taxing and difficult period. As a group they found the response to the initiative very helpful and positive overall.
They will be providing this service again during the Level 5 restrictive period. If you live alone, know someone who lives alone or someone who would benefit from a daily phone call or chat please get in contact with them. As well as the threat of this disease, we should also be concerned for everyone’s mental health. Keep in touch over the phone or in person with people you trust, while observing social distancing guidelines.
