Groups supporting vulnerable linked with local outlets

Community groups supporting vulnerable people have been linked with their local Lincolnshire Co-op food store or pharmacy to enable them to pick up essential groceries or prescriptions.

We're working with the Lincolnshire Resilience Forum Communities and Volunteer Co-ordination Cell, which is co-ordinating the voluntary effort county-wide in response to Coronavirus (COVID-19).

With the Forum’s help, we're linking each of our food stores and pharmacies to a community group which can pick up essential groceries or prescriptions and take them to isolated people in the area.

Members of the group will be given a pass to enable them to pick up essential groceries like milk, bread, butter, pasta, toilet roll and paracetamol from food stores (subject to availability) and prescriptions and medical supplies from pharmacies.

From a local group?

We’re still working on this list with the Lincolnshire Resilience Forum, so if you can’t see your local area on here, but are aware of a group that can help, please get in touch with our Community team on (01522) 544632 or email community@lincolnshire.coop.
