NEWS &CLASSIFIEDS 14 North Canterbury News, April 16, 2020 Committee helps the vulnerable By ROBYN BRISTOW Asmall group of NorthCanterbury residents are reaching out to the elderly and vulnerable in their community during the Covid­19lockdown. Regulartelephone calls, grocery vouchers and help with payingfor firewood are some of the comforts being provided for Waiau,Rotherham and Culverden’s elderly,people living alone, solo parents and the vulnerable. It is thankstothe efforts of asevenmember CommunityResponse Committee, and the experience gained from the recovery of those communities afterthe November 2016 quake. Emma Duncan, who heads the committee, saysher experience as part of the HurunuiDistrictCouncil’s recovery team after the 2016 earthquake, prompted her to gatherupcommittee members in the Waiau, Rotherham andCulverden areasbefore thelockdown kickedin. Alist of people to contact was formulated. ‘‘I hadsome experience aboutwhat a disaster looked like, and knewwhile there were many peopleinisolation using devices, social media and Facebook to stay in touch, therewere manyelderly people who had no connection to thesetypes of devices. ‘‘Theirforum is alandline,’’ she says. Emma says it is not justthe elderly feelinganxiousand uncertain. There are solo parents,people livingalone and people with health issues. Before lockdown, she gathered the group of empathetic, caringand willing women together,and work began. The group has also gained funding to help those caught short withnofirewood, or who are struggling with the grocery and fuel bill. It is alsoexpecting that, whenpower bills arrive in letterboxes, especially with everyone home using devices and heaters, there willbesome who will need help to pay them. Emma says the Amuri CommunityTrust is supporting the committee, and funding from theMinistry of Society Development and Te Puni Kokirihas enabled the committee to ensure those needing help, can get it. ‘‘Theresponse has beenreally good and the supportwehave been abletogive has been reallybeneficial,’’ she says. ‘‘It is all trial and error. Whatisneeded may increaseand we are now considering what things might looklike at Level 3, and what sortofservice that we might try to provide. ‘‘There are alot of unknowns,but at the moment we seemtobeeffective,’’ Emma says. Aboutsix loads of wood had been delivered, and grocery vouchers had been givenout to strugglingfamilies. ‘‘Thesupporthas been really appreciated and it has helped everyone remain positive in these trying circumstances.’’ To registerwith the committee, call Emma on (027) 510 6353 or email grantemma1206@gmail.com.She will ensure people are connectedwithone of the group members immediately.
