DAVID Wilson Homes has donated £500 towards Nantwich Buddies, which helps reduce isolation and offers befriending services in the community.

Operating near the housebuilder’s Maylands Park and Kingsbourne developments in Nantwich, the Nantwich Buddies formed in March 2020 as a direct response to the first Covid-19 lockdown.

Founder Liz Parkin felt there was a need to support isolated households with shopping and prescription collections so she put a message on Facebook to see if anyone else would like to help.

The first 40 volunteers came from her immediate network of friends and family within the first three weeks.

They began working with Cheshire East's People Helping People team, which received calls from the general public asking for help. They soon exceeded 130 volunteers and helped over 230 households.
