Oswestry charity sets up homeworking to keep support services running
Qube Oswestry is continuing to provide important support services for those who are most in need during the current pandemic.
The Oswestry based charity, which started in 1989, delivers a range of services across the local area including Community Transport, Shop Mobility, twice weekly Social Clubs and Befriending Services. They also offer a range of Community Arts Projects and learning resources for people of all ages and backgrounds.
In line with government guidelines the charity has closed their Oswald Road premises for the time being but continues to provide a link between third party agencies and those who need support throughout the pandemic.
Chief Officer Laurel Roberts said: “We are working hard to make sure that nobody is left out during this difficult time. We are fortunate to have local contacts, resources and strong links with major agencies which means we can adapt and adjust our services to meet the needs of the moment. We are very lucky to have a strong platform upon which to offer assistance and will continue to do so throughout the situation.”
The team are all working from home but can still be contacted to provide help with shopping services, befriending support and arts activities. Please use the contact details below if you require assistance or would like to be put in touch with the relevant support agencies or find us on Facebook, Instagram and twitter.
