Big Hearts Community Trust Ensures Charitable Services Continue
The motion
That the Parliament commends Big Hearts Community Trust for its implementation of four new dedicated helplines in place of the range of face-to-face services that it usually provides to the community; understands that these new helplines will be used to support the 150 vulnerable adults and children who usually access its services and will offer targeted assistance; praises the staff team, who have so far completed hundreds of calls to families, isolated adults and older people while working remotely, and believes that this announcement is a prime example of civic spirit in response to COVID-19.
