By nature Golden Lane residents like to look out for their neighbours and many informal groups are self organising. A group of residents headed by resident Councillor Sue Pearson have formed the GLE Covid 19 Hub to support these groups - email glecovid19@gmail.com or leave a message on 07714 777692
More info on the Covid-19 page which we'll try to keep regularly updated with resident specific info and useful links.
You can engage with other website members on the Health and Wellbeing forum

- a dedicated email COVID-19 mailbox

That reflects on the windows of places built for living...
