Suffolk Coronavirus Community Fund

The Coronavirus outbreak is now presenting a significant threat to the people of Suffolk with many vulnerable residents in our part of Suffolk facing several weeks of social distancing...
 
In response to the on-going situation, Suffolk Community Foundation has launched the Suffolk Coronavirus Community Fund. 
 
Also - and in partnership with the National Emergency Trust - community foundations across the country will be distributing nationally raised funds at a local level. 
 
Money raised will support charity groups and community organisations throughout Suffolk, to reach the most vulnerable during this pandemic.
 
This is clearly a developing situation - and as a result, the focus of the fund will continue to evolve in line with the support required. 
 
The fund will currently support projects that address; 

• older people at risk (typically over the age of 70)
• vulnerable people with medical conditions
• those that are isolated and therefore have limited support networks
• those picking up extra demand – such as food banks, telephone befriending, and advice services
• good neighbourhood schemes
