Working alongside Priors Park Neighbourhood Project and Heart of Priors Park, we set up and ran Priors Park Community Response as part of Tewkesbury Community Response providing food for those self-isolating during the Covid 19 Pandemic. We also did shopping trips and collection of prescriptions and responded to any need that arose. As a result we set up The Hub @TheChapel, a Community Response group and obtained Local Government and National Lottery funding to assist in covering the cost of meeting the needs of the community. We worked in close liaison with Christians Against Poverty, Tewkesbury Food Bank, Tewkesbury Town Council, Bromford Housing and Tewkesbury Borough Council. During the Covid 19 pandemic, we worked in close liaison with Tewkesbury Borough Council’s Covid Officer to provide care for the community in the safest way possible, providing Risk Assessments and Method Statements to deal with the challenges we faced. The Hub team underwent training for the running of projects funded by grants.
