The Project Manager has today advised that the main cabinet serving the Kingscote build is now live.

This is good news as it means residents in the village should be able to place an order for service by the middle of next week. If they have registered on the website at gigaclear.com, they will be notified that their connection is ready for service, via an email.

I would also just draw your attention to the Community Hub scheme which is where Gigaclear connect a community project that is in the build, free of charge. All the information on this scheme is available here: https://www.gigaclear.com/community-hub

Due to the impact of Coronavirus over 5.5 million people are now claiming Universal Credit. Many of them are new to claiming Universal Credit having been negatively impacted by Coronavirus. 

The government is encouraging Parish Councils to share the following guide on their website and/or social media to help local people navigate claiming Universal Credit:

Here’s the Universal Credit guide https://www.jobcentrenearme.com/universal-credit/

On Tuesday 23 March at noon there will be a minute’s silence and the church bells in Kingscote will toll. This is to mark one year on from the first Covid19 lockdown and provides a chance to reflect on the changes that have affected us all over the past 12 months, to remember those who have died, and to look forward in hopefulness.   

We will gather at the war memorial in Kingscote by 11.50am for some short prayers before the tolling of the bells.

This National Reflection Day is organised by Marie Curie Cancer Care.  People are also being encouraged to light up their doorsteps/ windows with candles/ lanterns at 8pm on the evening of 23rd March.
