Grove Cottage Service Update – 6th January 2021

It is with deepest regret that due to the new National Lockdown announced on Monday 4^th January we have been left with no alternative than to close all of our services with immediate effect (with the exception of Speech and Language Therapy which will move to an online delivery.)

This is never a decision that we take lightly, however, the safety of our members and staff will always be our priority. I would like to reassure you that we will keep all guidance under constant review. If you need to contact Grove Cottage please email info@mencapgrovecottage.org or alternatively Maria, myself and Freya will be flexi-furloughed and therefore still contactable. If you would like to call for a chat or arrange a video call you can email us or leave a message on our work mobiles and we will get back to you as soon as we can.

We know this is a very challenging time for all of our members and their families. Please continue to keep in touch through our closed community Grove Cottage Members Facebook Page. We would also like to let you know about Mencap’s Learning Disability Helpline, this is a free help and advice line. Their advisors can offer you advice and information about learning disability and help you find the right support and services in your area. Advisors are available from 10am to 3pm, Monday to Friday.

You can get in touch by phoning: 0808 808 1111.

Or you can email helpline@mencap.org.uk or complete this online form and someone will get back to you as soon as they can.

Please take care and stay safe.

With warmest Wishes,

Jocelin Warren
