Wincanton Cares – May / June 2025 Newsletter
Lots to to talk about in this Spring/Summer newsletter. First things first, meet our new Benefits Officer who can advise on all sorts of help that might be available for us. We’ll introduce you to Michael. We are also looking at the changes in the NHS and how they might affect you, including a new Healthwatch organisation. We take a look at Wincanton Library and what it has to offer – more than books apparently, and we’ll also recap on some of the very sensible advice from Neighbourhood Watch. Let’s go!
Wincanton Cares – March / April 2025 Newsletter
This month we’ll be learning about CCS, the Community Council for Somerset, and the Somerset Carers Service. We’ll also be hearing about Fiona Clements who is The Village Agent (Carers Service) for Wincanton and the surrounding areas. And what is a Carers Champion – we’ll find out. Then, finally for this month, we’ll be offering some timely safety advice that makes sense for all of us to follow.
