SUPPORT
North Lowestoft Men's Shed (aka NLMS) continues to consolidate its base. In this case, building a patio.
Using gravel-mesh as the patio base our next step is to spread gravel over it all. This will create a solid and secure surface on which to put our donated garden and chair set to catch the last of the summer sun.
We've also been donated high-quality kitchen cupboards by Lowestoft Tile Company in Wilde Street. A piece of work-surface has been attached to a metal table frame found abandoned in the High Street to create a work table.
We have a flag, too.
Meeting weekly (Wed 10:30am) at The Land, Denmark Road

LOWESTOFT FOODBANKS and HELP FOR THE HOMELESS
There's one foodbank in the area, but they have several outlets where you can get food. They usually operate a 'referral' scheme – a professional or established agency gives you a voucher of some kind which you take to the appropriate organisation. But Covid-times mean you need to check.
“We are currently awaiting further guidance on the new Covid-19 business grants announced by the Government yesterday and will update our website as soon as we have more information. The key thing that businesses can do at this stage is to apply for the Local Restrictions Support Grant (LRSG), which has been available since the lockdown in November, if they haven’t already. The online form and full details about how to apply with full eligibility criteria can be found below:
