Good afternoon,
The Fremantle community is a connected and proactive one who want to do more than sit back and await direction. At this unprecedented time of constant updates and measures relating to COVID-19 many people are asking how they can help. The City’s Neighbour to Neighbour project aims to provide a connection between those wanting to help and those at high risk of being impacted by the threats of COVID-19, including seniors, people with a disability, people from culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) backgrounds and Indigenous people.
Volunteers are local residents over 18 willing to help vulnerable people in the community with simple errands, including grocery shopping, dog walking, posting mail or simply checking in with a friendly phone call. Younger people can also volunteer but must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
The City has just launched the Neighbour to Neighbour program which is designed to connect people in the community at this time of crisis. To keep you informed the information and sign up form is available via the link below. You are very welcome to share if you know anyone else that’s in a position to support, or may require support.

Please feel free to contact me if you would like any further information.
Thanks!
Julie
