Supporting our proud village
Community Action / Current Objectives

Any situation where we are told that if we can keep UK deaths under 20,000 we will have done well, is clearly not a good one. This is a tough time. Something about the scale of that number means that many families will be touched directly by loss, and if deaths can prevented we should be doing everything we can.
How the NCC can best support the village through the COVID-19 crisis: The Newtongrange Resilience Volunteers, masterplan catch up and alternative plans for VE Day and other activities to help the community through isolation.
