Halsall Parish against Coronavirus

Halsall has a substantial elderly community who may be more at risk from Coronavirus and Halsall Parish Council and Borough Cllr Maureen Mills are very concerned for the health and welfare of everyone within the Parish.

We are looking into measures and assistance which can help vulnerable residents cope with the knock on effects this virus may have. We are seeking volunteers to help those who may be in self-isolation or ill and may require shopping, or just a simple reassuring phone call. Potentially over the next few months, our normal routines will be disrupted and the community will, we are sure, rally to help our neighbours.

It cannot be stressed strongly enough that residents should follow professional advice and keep themselves up to date with news as matters progress:

The Parish Council has a number of resources that might be needed in a worst case scenario and forward planning is underway.  However, we will need your support going forward.

We would also welcome your thoughts on how we can assist the community through these difficult times.  The community spirit within Halsall is strong and resilient, and we want to promote that further to help us all through this crisis.

We have compiled a list the local suppliers who are willing to conduct door to door deliveries ranging from the essentials to restaurants and cafes providing hot and cold meals.

Please note that some businesses may charge for delivery
