This is a handy one page summary for entering Phase 2.

Disappointed that vulnerable people in Edinburgh are not going to get the support the FM promised and we don’t see how we can support the Test and Protect programme either without the continuation of the Food Fund, worrying times for households across the city 😔

[EVOC @evoc_edinburgh]

.@scotgov Food Fund allocation for #Edinburgh is depleted. Funding for 30 community organisations delivering 27K meals per week to Edinburgh's most vulnerable people runs out on Monday. #youllhavehadyourtea

Message from our Manager, Kellie Mercer.
"During this challenging time when our vulnerable older people may be isolated for a number of weeks or months and face to face contact may become increasingly difficult, Phonelink have worked hard to increase capacity.
