Edinburgh Council has an emergeny phone line and email address offering additional support and advice to those who are vulnerable or high risk during the Coronavirus lockdown.
For most of us, we’re able to manage these difficult times ourselves with support from friends and family. Where this is possible, please continue to do so we can support those who most need it.
However, if you do need additional support, we can help if you:
- are over 70
- have a disability
- need support from mental health services
- are pregnant
- receive a flu jab for health reasons
- don’t have online access to get information.
We’ll arrange the help or support you need either through council services, or volunteers or voluntary groups.
Call us on: 0131 200 2306 or email: edinburghvulnerable@edinburgh.gov.uk
The Council also has a series of webpages offering informaton to different groups these include:
- Supporting parents, children, young people and carers
- Information and advice for council tenants
- Looking after yourself – mental health and wellbeing
- Homelessness services
- Council tax, benefits and welfare advice
