Your Local Lincs magazine will remain open during the 2021 January & February lockdown. The office and warehouse will operate an appointment service for delivery of booked leaflets to be dropped off. Sadly we can no longer receive any more rotary shoe boxes or mens’ clothes for rehabilitating ex-offenders. Distribution will continue as normal as we are an essential community service. We continue to adhere to strict Covid-19 Government guidelines. We are under constant review and should official guidelines change then we will respond accordingly.

Happy New Year! I hope that you have all managed to enjoy what you could of the festivities under the current situation? I know if you feel like I do, you will be hoping for some kind of normality to resume again at some point in 2021. With the Covid-19 vaccine now starting to become available, it does seem that there might be a possibility. Thank you to all our NHS and key workers that have worked tirelessly ensuring that we stay safe and receive the services that we sometimes take for granted.
