Welcome to 3SG

(Graphic Link to 3SG dedicated Covid-19 subsite)

Over the last three months 3SG in partnership with Virgin Care, our health and social care provider, and Banes Council have worked around the clock to set up the Compassionate Community Hub reaching out to the vulnerable and isolated providing help with food deliveries, medicine, urgent housing, mental health and wellbeing and money matters.

To date the hub has received over 4000 calls from people across Bath and North East Somerset. 3SG have recruited and managed 2,500 volunteers and almost 1,000 tasks have been completed supporting the most vulnerable, examples include food shopping, collection of medicines and befriending calls. 90% of volunteers are carrying out repeat services for people they have established a relationship with. The benefit being that people can continue to access support from a trusted neighbour and a safe and secure payment process.

*N.B. we are no longer accepting new volunteer registrations at this time*

3SG continue to be based in the Compassionate Community Hub which is providing support for people right across Bath and north east Somerset. We will continue to post regular updates on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and our Compassionate Community Hub page as the situation develops.
