Support in Cheshire West and Chester
Dedicated support helpline
An emergency response for people living in west Cheshire has been launched to support those vulnerable groups at higher risk from serious complications as a result of COVID-19 infection.
People in the most vulnerable groups, based on their medical condition, are being contacted by the government, and referred onto help from their local council if they can’t meet their needs with the help of friends and families.
A wider group of local people may also need support to protect themselves from the virus. Cheshire West and Chester Council has therefore launched a dedicated helpline 0300 123 7031 which will run 7 days a week from 8am to 7pm. The helpline will provide advice and support, and where necessary make arrangements for food, medicines and social contact. You can also email: enquiries@cheshirewestandchester.gov.uk.
