Newsletter 60: 12th July 2021

Our printed newsletter for the week beginning 12th July 2021

This Newsletter has been produced by the Petersfield COVID-19 Network. It is intended to help and inform Petersfield residents, especially those who are unable to leave their homes because of Government restrictions.

If you know someone who would like to receive the paper version of this newsletter, please ask them to contact Romsey Mill via phone or via post: Romsey Mill Centre, Hemingford Road, Cambridge CB1 3BZ (you do not need a stamp if you add “FREEPOST CB1067”) or call 07933 671101.

Romsey Mill can also offer assistance by putting you in contact with volunteers, who can help collecting shopping and medication.

If you have information which would be of benefit to other residents in Petersfield please contact Romsey Mill with details and we will consider using it in future newsletters.

For all residents experiencing other Covid related issues (e.g. needing help while they isolate, or experiencing financial hardship support) speak to a member of the customer services team at Cambridge City Council.  Telephone 01223 458780 or contact Simon.Aslett@cambridge.gov.uk or complete an online help request form here https://www.cambridge.gov.uk/coronavirus

Vaccinations in Cambridge

Despite the current higher than national average infection rate in Cambridge, the percentage of the population who have received the vaccine remains low. Nationally, 86.4% have received the first dose compared with 61% in Cambridge and nationally 65% have had the second dose compared with 36% in Cambridge.

In an attempt to improve the situation, a number of walk-in vaccination centres are being set up for those over-18s who have not yet received both doses of the vaccine.
