***
Although Chipping Campden is often perceived as a wealthy town due to its tourism facilities and above average number of wealthy residents, we have been dismayed by the number of people living in the area who are struggling to cope.
We have been told that Campden Vale ward is the highest area of need in the Cotswolds district with 296 households identified as low income, of which 133 are of pension age and only 35 are in work. There are many challenges including poverty, mental health issues, substance abuse, isolation and dementia.
Our trustees believe the Hub, with its practical, on-the-ground support, is proving an invaluable resource helping people in a very rural part of the Cotswolds which many services struggle to reach.
Our overheads are kept to a minimum; just essentials like insurance and safeguarding courses. Trustees take no other expenses.
