As part of the response to the COVID-19 outbreak there has been a joint response between a number of statutory and voluntary sector partners co-ordinated by the Collaborative Communities Board. There is a clear need to provide ongoing support to the Suffolk population both in response to Covid-19 and to meet wider support needs. 

The Suffolk Advice and Support Service will bring together five essential areas of work.

  1. Single Point of Access
  2. Local Welfare Assistance Scheme
  3. Food banks
