Dear residents,
Today, many parents dust off their school knowledge and begin homeschooling their children. The Department for Education has released guidance and support for parents while they undertake this challenge - good luck! It's #EarthDay2020 on Wednesday, and a time for hope, optimism and action for the future even in these strange times. Watch our Facebook or Twitter for activities, you could even include one in your home lesson plans.
Thanks so much to everyone who has donated to our Crowdfunder. In less than 30 days we’ve raised nearly £35,000. That’s a phenomenal effort and will benefit local organisations so they can provide more support to residents who need it. The fund will be closed from Thursday midnight, so if your circumstances allow and you would like to make a donation, please do.
For any readers who work in or are part of the voluntary or charity sector in Waltham Forest, please take a look at our latest newsletter for information on how we can support you at this time, and sign up to our mailing list to make sure you receive all of the latest information.
