COVID 19 ongoing situation Sept 2020

Beeston Community Resource CIO

Following the lock down and the flood in June we have now managed to re-open Middle Street Resource Centre with its Community Café and activities.

During the “lock down” we continued to support our service users, who have lived mental health issues, with regular phone calls as well as offering a “meals on wheels” service for individuals who were struggling to feed themselves.

The flooding caused major damage to the carpets and flooring throughout the centre which took 4 weeks to fully dry out.

This enforced extra shut down gave us the opportunity to make sure we were COVID 19 safe when we re-opened, with risk assessments in place for all the rooms and activities.

We have set in place a booking system for the café and meal sittings, please ring 0115 9252516 for information and to book a table, all tables are socially distanced with limited numbers allowed for each sitting.

Activities under the MindSet programme have set up again including the walking group, Talk and Support, Poetry, Creative Writing and Hearing Voices. We have also welcomed back some of the long term hire groups such as Beeston Memory Café , Beeston Baptist Church and Gamelan, with new enquiries from Beeston U3A for various groups.

We look forward to welcoming other groups and individuals back over the next few weeks / months, we are doing our bit to be as safe, but accessible, as possible. Please give us a ring on 0115 9252516
