What kind of kind neighbour are you?

The COVID-19 concerns are real and changing the way we relate to each other. Whilst face-to-face contact is less desirable, the options for connecting online are very real and with the NBN rolling out locally over the next month much more accessible.

The CPPA is exploring ideas to keep our community connected and caring for each other.

• This could be a facebook group...Nice Nearby Neighbours where we can post support ideas and chat
• We might be able to host online catchups or social watch parties.

If you have any ideas or expertise in social media that you'd like to discuss please contact Suzanne coalpointprogess@gmail.com  

Have you thought about dropping a hello card into your neighbour? This connection card makes the introduction easy Whilst the cuppa and the BBQ might be out of the question, knowing who lives across the road may ease concerns of isolation.There's also a simple introduction card or a piece of paper will do.

Neighbour Day is the last Sunday in March 29/3/20, a great time to check in with those who may need a hand or just to know there is someone out there.
