Ottery Community Volunteers have received a vital cash injection from the Covid-19 Fund for the vital work they do supporting people in need.
The group, which was set up by the community for the community when the first coronavirus lockdown was imposed, has been awarded £700 from a grants scheme run by East Devon District Council and Devon County Council.
The money will help pay for office administration.
Ottery Community Volunteers was set up in March last year, with around 400 residents signing up to help people in the town hard hit by the pandemic. Now, almost a year later, it is a thriving, not for profit organisation with a mission that is likely to continue long after the virus has been brought under control.
