The Coddenham Community Response Group Terms of Reference

The CCRG originally came together because of a community wish to see a local organised response to COVID19. We have built upon that exciting collaboration along with many more volunteers who are helping to provide services and community support. We also liaise with Mid Suffolk Council, Suffolk County Council and local Parish Councils.

We meet virtually approximately bi-monthly or on demand, with notes on all our meetings available on request. We welcome representatives from the community either personally or through this website. We are a loose collaboration that exists solely to serve the community, avoiding political or personal agenda,  always striving to provide the best we can, together.

Our scope and intent is covered in our Terms of Reference and can be found here.

The Coddenham Community Response Group and the Environment.

Early in 2021 we agreed it was in the interests of the community to promote an awareness and response when we could to the environmental emergency. There is no intention to ‘preach’, but to simply support initiatives and share learning on what we can contribute as a parish, to the national movement for a zero carbon country.

The Coddenham Centre and the Day Foundation already have initiatives in place and other members of the group are developing their own awareness and environmental agendas. We have  added a dedicated page to this site to report on progress and publish features on the environment. If you have any proposals or news of your own ideas, please get in touch by emailing support@coddenham-parish.uk.

Covid-19 information & updates

Follow the latest Government instructions regarding Covid-19

It is important that we continue to support our community and look after our neighbours and ourselves, whatever the level of alert. Please use the links and contact numbers on this website for the very latest information and to request any help and support you might need.

Do not leave home if you or anyone in your household has symptoms of Covid-19.

UK Data

This information should be seen in context as the number of tests being made affects the number of recorded cases reported. Fewer daily tests were being made at the start of the pandemic. As of the end of February 2022  data is no longer published over the weekend and is integrated into the figures on Monday – hence the large dip and rise in the graph.

Community Engagement

Some more of the Story So Far

Looking back last year, in Christmas 2021 we saw goodwill parcels being distributed to Haysel House again with the help of the Day Foundation. The History Club continue to digitise Coddenham’s valuable records through the website and shared them with all. We’ve continued to respond to local issues such as prompting action on our Broom Hill, supported the strategy for a Greener Suffolk and celebrated new local authors. Sadly we again said goodbye to some members of the community. Happily however, we all got together and celebrated the Recreation & Sports field 100th birthday.

We’ve previously shared accolades, including the BBC Radio  Suffolk ‘Making a Difference’ Award,  BBC interviews about the village and always cheered each other on. Our volunteers be they in the shop, on our help line, distributing newsletters, working with the Church or Coddenham Centre or maintaining our website, have all played a positive and invaluable part in our all working together.

We are members of the  Suffolk Good Neighbour Network and committed to ensuring the Environment was added to our community agenda. In 2021 we had our First Birthday which we celebrated in a newsletter here.
