We have created this page so we can access information, advice and guidance to help us get through this challenging time together. Hampton Bishop is a beautiful and special village. We are a resourceful, pro-active, caring community that works together, particularly in times of need. If you would like to get in touch, send us any tips on how you are coping or you just want someone to talk to please email us at resilience.hamptonbishop@gmail.com. 

Check out the noticeboard regularly - we'll be posting information on local food suppliers who can deliver fresh food and essentials to the village. We will post these as PDFs so you can print them off and stick on your fridge. Plus, garden tips, grow your own veg, and activities we can do safely from our homes.

• Only go outside for essential food, health reasons or work (but only if you cannot work from home). If you go out, stay 2 metres (6ft) away from other people at all times.
• Wash your hands as soon as you get home
• Do not meet others, even friends or family. You can spread the virus even if you don’t have symptoms

We have band of friendly volunteers in the village who are on hand to offer support to their neighbours. Our village has been divided up into 10 zones with one or more volunteer per zone. Every household in the village should know who their volunteers are in their particular zone - you would have recieved a note through your door or an email, with their contact details. If not, do email us at resilience.hamptonbishop.gmail.com and we will connect you!
