The Milford Community Care Group recently held a Tea Party to celebrate its 40th anniversary.
The Group was founded by two women from All Saints’ church, who recognised villagers’ need for reliable transport to medical appointments. From these small beginnings the Group expanded into the Registered Charity it is today. At its peak the Group was driving 40 people a week to medical appointments.
The Group has not been operating during the pandemic, but they are working towards safely reopening, and are in touch with the Community Centre. The aim is to have the office at the Community Centre up and running for the co-ordinators to accept bookings to take local residents to medical appointments near and far soon.
The group are also interested in meeting people who would like to be volunteer drivers or Office Co-ordinators, if you would like to help or find out more, please contact Anna on 01590 643376.
