Keeping in touch in Staveley and Copgrove Parish

The Corona Virus pandemic has certainly demonstrated how important it is to be able to contact friends and neighbours, especially if family are not available, or nearby.

It is good to be able to keep in touch with neighbours and fellow villagers and it is useful to be reminded that communication sharing is valuable and important.

Are you aware that in Staveley and Copgrove Parish there is a way to keep in touch with people locally using the enquiries service and a chat option on the Parish website?
The chat option on the website has not really been used much to date by people but the enquiries option is more often accessed for all sorts of reasons. In fact the enquiries prove very useful for those outside the villages too, which is encouraging.

The Parish Council is regularly reviewing the best way to communicate and encourage communication from residents and regularly sends out a newsletter with local information points. Ideas for developing and improving the communication links available to everyone in the locality are always welcomed!

Do be aware also that Copgrove has its own active whats app group, which certainly seems to work well and gets important news shared around the village quickly. Do you remember that old advertising slogan?
