Ulverston Resilience Group (URG) was set up in 2020 to help the elderly and clinically vulnerable members of the Ulverston (LA12) community during the Coronavirus outbreak. The group is run entirely by a volunteer committee, and has a database of about 300 volunteer supporters.
Sadly, more people needed assistance through Covid than we would ever have thought. Your donations were used to provide support for the local community, including people struggling to look after themselves and their families. URG also managed the stewarding of all Covid-19 vaccinations clinics at Ulverston Health Centre. URG is now working with the Westmorland & Furness Council and Cumbria Resilience Forum to provide local support in the event of a major incident.
URG is funded by a number of grants and corporate donations, which cover essential costs. Any donations made via this web page are used for additional community activities, such as random acts of kindness. These little things can mean a lot to the people who we support, but cannot generally be funded via formal grants. Your donation really will make a difference to someone.
