Swaledale and Arkengarthdale Coronavirus Support

A document has been collated to bring together all the current information with regard to services available in the two dales to support all residents, particularly those who are self-isolating for whatever reason. It includes a full list of individual village contacts. The full document is available for download here.

An Anchor Hub has been designated by North Yorkshire County Council (NYCC) located at Hudson House in Reeth and managed by Reeth & District Community Transport (RDCT), the Yellow Bus, and Hudson House (HH). This will be managed by Gail Hall and Jill May with the support of the boards of RDCT & HH, and a team of volunteers. Phone 01748 880 021 manned Monday to Friday 10 am to 3 pm. Messages can be left at any time. Calls to NYCC from people in the two dales will be redirected to the hub. Email: rdct@hudsonhouse.info or admin@hudsonhouse.info

The hub will maintain a list of contacts in the various communities in the two dales and will direct callers to their nearest support person. The hub will also deliver shopping and prescriptions to your door using the Yellow Bus. The document also provides information about shops in the area and their own delivery services, DVD library and the Reeth Gazette. As services evolve the document will be updated and posted here.
