It’s been revealed that Surrey County Council has been granted further funding from the Government’s Local Covid Support grant.
An extra £500,000 has been awarded in recognition of the devastating financial impact COVID has had on some of Surrey’s residents.
The money will be split several ways and will include covering support for families, contribution to foodbanks and those in emergency need.

Sussex Police are reminding residents to ensure their homes, garages and outbuildings are secure as we continue to move out of lockdown.
Over the last 12 months, reports of burglaries have dropped across the county as the UK’s movement restrictions helped to contribute towards this.
Now the summer is approaching, police are anticipating that burglars may seize opportunities to target empty properties when people are out.
