Making sure information and financial help gets to the people who need it the most, may be a way you can volunteer in honour of His Majesty King Charles III’s Coronation.
Each Community Information Champion can choose their level of involvement and plays a vital role ensuring our residents has access to good quality information. And we need more!
By sharing our information about additional support funds available to residents, education, skills and job opportunities, events, road closures, and public health messages, you could be passing on vital information helping someone else in their everyday life.
Networks can be any size
There are currently 180 Community Information Champions. Some are community groups which share our messages with their own networks, parents sharing the information with their friends, or a neighbour sharing it with the rest of their street.
Jesal Dhokia, transformation and community service lead, said: "This is why Community Information Champions are so great as we share the information with them, and they can share it if they think it will be of relevance to their circle.
"We get into every nook and cranny of the community and get to those who could need the information the most.
"Residents can be as involved or not as their time and energy allow. It is flexible.”
In recent years Community Information Champions have relayed information about government support funds, additional help over school holidays, benefits, and what older residents are entitled to.
We would especially like to encourage more young people to get involved as well as recruit more Community Information Champions in the Ascot and Old Windsor areas.
