Baines’ is re-opening from Tuesday June 16th 2020 onwards.

Initially we will be open for 5 days only. The days and timings are:

Tuesday to Saturday from 8:30 am – 2:00 pm.

We will be reviewing our product offering week-by-week and anticipate that there may be regular changes, as we adapt and evolve to ensure all government guidelines are followed. Please therefore stay updated through our website – bainesbakery.co.uk

We will be working on SKELETON staff. Freshly baked bread, our range of cakes and filled rolls,  although reduced (but still plenty of choice!) will also be available daily.

There will be a ONE in, ONE out policy in place. Contactless payments will be the preferred method of payment.

We look forward to welcoming you all back and would like to thank you in advance for your patience and understanding!

Richard, Karen & Kate Baines

The coronavirus outbreak meant that there was not quite the street party in Ridlington, that was being planned. However, Ridlington residents still made sure to mark the occasion in the community, whilst in lockdown, whilst remaining both socially distanced and safe.

There was a ringing of the church bells at 11am to signal the 2 minutes silence, followed by a ‘stay at home tea party’ at 4pm and ‘toast your neighbours’ at 6pm.  Homes were decorated beautifully and everyone enjoyed the day.

COLLECTION BOX

During Covid 19 the collection box can be found in the church porch. We have now signed up to the RCC scheme, so Voluntary Action Rutland (VAR) are now collecting from the church to reduce the number of people visiting the Foodbank.

Thank you for your generosity and…please, please keep your donations coming.

Items needed at the moment include: coffee; dried potato; jam; small bags of sugar; tinned potatoes; small sponge puddings; UHT milk; tins of custard; shaving gel; washing up liquid; non-bio washing capsules; toilet roll; baby food for 7months+

Alternatively, you can make a donation to The Trussell Trust.

More information can be found at https://rutland.foodbank.org.uk/

Please read below a letter we have received from Mr. Chauhan informing us of the new online network – NHS Citizens’ Panel.

Dear Mr. Johnson,

Did you know that the local NHS organisations have launched a new online network, NHS Citizens’ Panel for people in Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland (LLR), to help people stay connected and  participate and share  views about their local healthcare service?

I am hoping that you can assist us to spread the word.  People we talk to are telling us about the great job that Parish Councils are doing at this difficult time – sharing articles, posting information on websites and also putting information on their notice boards to keep their local community informed.  We are also experiencing this for ourselves.

I would be grateful if you could display the attached poster  and use the attached article on your website and in any local newsletters/community magazines.  If you use any social media – a mention about the Citizens’ Panel would be great.

Should you need any further tools to support with promoting the Citizens’ Panel through social media such as Facebook, twitter or your internet, or you would like further information, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Thank you for helping and supporting your local NHS.

A LITTLE REMINDER ABOUT THE MEDICINES COLLECTION SCHEME

 

If you would like your prescription collecting, please ensure that you let me know by phone (823910) or by email (debrathatcher@hotmail.com).  We have to give the pharmacy 72 hours’ notice of the proposed collection.  The prescriptions from Uppingham are collected on a Friday.

The Next Collection Date

First, a huge thank you to everyone who has given items for the food bank collection in the church porch.  David and Anne Harvey kindly delivered the items earlier this week.  In future, Rutland County Council working with Voluntary Action Rutland will collect the items to support social distancing and limit journeys to the Food Bank.  They have supplied us with two boxes to use – they can be found on the left hand side of the church porch: they are smaller than our usual collection box but will be easier for them to collect, so please use the smaller boxes first.  We are waiting for confirmation of the next collection date but understand that it might be Wednesday, 20th May.

Items requested include:
Tinned carrots, Tinned potatoes, Smash, Jams/spreads (not homemade), Sponge puddings, Small bags of sugar (500g), Tins of meat, Tinned meat pies, Tins of custard, Full cream UHT milk, Toilet rolls, UHT juice, Small jars of coffee, Children’s toothbrushes and toothpaste.

If you are unable to access the collection point and would like someone to collect an item from you please contact me (debrathatcher@hotmail.com or 823910).  Alternatively, if you would like to donate money, you can pay direct by bank transfer to:

Account name: Rutland Foodbank

Sort code: 20-45-77

Account number: 70782629

Every donation makes a difference, so please continue to donate to help meet the increasing demands being made on the Foodbank.
