The Somerton Resilience Fund was established during the Covid Pandemic and is available to assist our residents in need of some financial support. The fund, started with a grant from SSE. The use and allocation of funds will be overseen by a group of trustees. It is impractical to provide an exhaustive list of the areas where assistance may be given but the following are by way of example:
¥ IT/communication related costs associated with isolation.
¥ Supporting the physical and mental well-being of residents
¥ Supporting delivery of food to shielding/vulnerable and isolated residents
¥ Medically related costs including hospital visits.
¥ Minor home repairs and modifications
¥ Security related costs and pendant alarms for the housebound
¥ Assistance with school trips and travel to assist a young personÕs development.
¥ Paid support and advice.
¥ Supporting projects that foster community spirit and resilience.
