Community agent to help access advice and support

A community agent has been appointed for Biggleswade to help residents access information and services.

Gill Reeves will be seeking to help residents, particularly those struggling with an issue and don’t know where to turn for help, or who are feeling socially isolated.

The service is free and confidential and includes pointing the way to statutory and voluntary organisations, and community groups.
