Some of you have written to me with concerns for local charities brought on by lockdown impeding their usual ways of raising money. The government did set up the Coronavirus Community Support Fund to help smaller charities. They have told me of 7 local charities that have now received some financial help:
Enrych Berkshire CIO
Access Ability Communications Technology
Keep Mobile Community Transport
Society for Horticultural Therapy
Home Start Wokingham District
Younger people with dementia (Berkshire)
Reading Refugee Support Group
