HELP AT HAND FOR OSCOTTS ELDERLY

If you are an elderly resident living in the Oscott ward and are having problems keeping your garden under control or have a small household job that needs sorting out there is help at hand.
The Oscott Ward Committee has donated 9 thousand pounds from its community Chest funds to enable Age UK continue with their Garden help project and Handy man scheme.
These schemes involve a one of garden clearance or doing an odd job around the house for an elderly resident.
Oscott Councillors have been supporting these schemes for some years and are more than happy to pass on details of residents to Age UK for help.
If you want to know more (or if you have an elderly friend or neighbour who would benefit from this scheme please contact me on 303 2039 and leave me a message.
