Lets get to 100 and then I will send it off to the powers that be for their consideration.

Volunteer Community Groups are trying their best to fill the gaps, but even they are getting a poor deal.

The more they do the more they are restricted by Jobsworths fearful that they may be sued.

Maybe the work of Voluntary Groups is showing Councils up for their failures to provide adequate services and facilities?

Local Charities and Community Groups are now in crisis, having survived the Lockdown Crisis and helped so many people.

I really hope we don not have another serious crisis in the near future, because Community Volunteers are exhausted and demoralised.

I am sorry, all the indicators are that Local Authorities are no longer up for the job they were created to fill.

Central Government Cuts, failures of local businesses and increasing poverty due to price hikes are hitting us all, including our volunteers,

The challenges are affecting Charity Shops, Community Centres and other Community Support Networks.

The Professional institutions can no longer provide adequate support and are not supporting the Community Volunteers filling the gaps.

It is now a Blame Game - Councils are no longer willing to take responsibility
