Reaction from Plunektt Foundation chief executive James Alcock to the announcement that pubs and other businesses will reopen in England from 4 July.
Together Hopkins and Plunkett are responding to the current crisis and supporting community businesses across Norfolk, Suffolk, Cambridgeshire and rural Essex to recover and thrive during the Covid-19 lockdown.
James Hopkins, Executive Chairman of award winning winning East Anglian home builder Hopkins Homes, explains why it is more important than ever to support rural community businesses through the new Hopkins Plunkett Communities Scheme.
Plunkett's Chief Executive James Alcock calls for the renewed energy and spirit of volunteering seen amid the Covid-19 crisis to be harnessed for the future.
Plunkett has secured continued support from the Esmée Fairbairn Foundation which will be used to underpin the next stage in the delivery of our five year strategy.
Plunkett is part of My Community - a simple way to find all the latest tools, tips and ideas to make your community a brilliant place to live.
In an open letter signed by the 13 organisations of The Rural Coalition to Defra secretary George Eustice, we are urging the government to rural proof any recovery strategy.
Community shops can sometimes take months, even years, to go from the initial idea to opening the doors. But in Brent Knoll, Somerset, when the coronavirus crisis struck the community decided they needed the shop immediately - and managed to open their 'emergency shop' shop in days.
An update from James Alcock, Chief Executive of the Plunkett Foundation.
New emergency support which aims to help community businesses facing a loss of trading income in light of the COVID-19 crisis has been announced by Plunkett's partner organisation Power to Change.
