Staff Adapt to New Normal
Most back-office workers have shifted to home working, thanks to prior investment in tech that makes remote work easy.
Meanwhile, frontline workers have new safety measures in place. The council urges everyone to respect social distancing when interacting with staff.
Community Spirit Shines Through
“There may be challenging days ahead, but we’re all in this together. I’m already impressed with the strong sense of community spirit,”
The council pledges to do all it can to support residents during this tough spell. It’s a rallying call – we all need to pull together.
