Update on some information
PARENTS: people are understandably anxious about what to do on Monday. If you’re not sure you can contact Stockport Council who have already been responding to individual issues. The contact is school.enquiries@stockport.gov.uk
This line is manned from 9-5 today and into next week
Other info
SMBC has as much information as they know so far from the government on the web site. The quickest access is to go onto the main SMBC web site and put “coronavirus” into the enquiry box. On the page that comes up you will see boxes for information on
Business and employees support (still waiting for info but you can register for some things)
Council tax relief
Bin collections info
How to help your community
Other things to note:
Transport for Greater Manchester has removed the limits on concessionary fares so those people can travel at any time of day. Tram and bus timetables will change on Monday 23rd with fewer services. There are refunds available on season tickets/travelcards if you are not travelling now
Northern are likely to change their timetable with fewer trains. Check on their web site
Lastly and very sadly, some people are trying to exploit the situation. I’ve seen a mail on TV licence expiry trying to get bank details. It’s bogus. Make sure those who may not see through this are warned.
