Wokingham Borough Community Response Just Giving Page
Managing the Covid-19 pandemic is a team effort.
Wokingham Borough Council, Town and Parish Councils, Voluntary Groups, Community Organisations and Charities, neighbourhoods and individual people are all pulling together to support those who need extra help at this time.
The Wokingham Borough Community Response is our borough-wide one-stop-shop for helping those in need during this difficult time. The volunteers around the borough complete essential shopping, drop off food parcels or deliver prescriptions. Also, they are answering the phones to worried residents in need of help, telephoning people who are isolated to check if they’re ok and offering some friendship at an especially lonely time.
All the money raised will go to fund food parcels for vulnerable people across the Borough, and any funds left over once the food hub closes will be distributed to the voluntary sector organisations involved in this combined response.

Exercise
You can still go to the park for outdoor exercise but only with members of your household or one other person.
We ask that households use parks responsibly and keep 2 metres apart from others at all times.
Unless you are with members of your household, gatherings of more than two people in parks and other public spaces have been banned. The police have the powers to disperse gatherings and issue fines if necessary.
