Statement from the Board of Trustees for Inverkip Community Initiative

"The Inverkip Community Initiative (ICI) is committed to the health and safety of our employees, volunteers and members of the public. In response to the current situation surrounding COVID-19 the Board of the ICI is asking all members of the public to follow the current guidance issued by the government which can be accessed here: https://www.gov.scot/coronavirus-covid-19/ and also https://www.nhsinform.scot/.../infec.../coronavirus-covid-19

Currently we will not be accepting any further bookings, and all current groups and parties are cancelled. We apologise for all inconvenience caused.

The library, which is operated by Inverclyde Council, is now also closed.

We are exploring ways in which we can help our community, and are happy to work with Inverclyde Council and other partners to support our community at this time.

This will include participating in Inverclyde Council's plan to ensure that all children entitled to a free school meal will be able to access one. Information on this can be found here: https://www.inverclyde.gov.uk/.../inverclyde-free-school... Parents of children entitled to a free school meal should have received a letter saying where to pick up the packed lunches, and Inverkip Community Hub is happy to be one of these venues, and to help our community in any way we can.

As the situation evolves we will react to the guidance of the government, the NHS and Inverclyde Council, and ask that you do the same.

Any further updates and information will be shared on this page.

Again, apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Thank you. We hope to see you all again soon, please stay safe and follow government advice!"
