Isle of Wight COVID-19 helpline

The helpline is for anyone who feels vulnerable, needs help because of lockdown or self-isolation, or who is alone with no local network of friends, family or neighbours and needs support.

The helpline can help with:

• Collection of medication from pharmacies, help to access pharmacy delivery services and health care needs.
• Access to online shopping services or small essential shopping requests.
• Suggesting other organisations who can help  with issues arising from isolation including welfare, finance, mental health, childcare issues, crisis advice and support or other caring responsibilities. 
• Suggesting where to get help with dog walking.

The helpline is a partnership between Isle of Wight Council and voluntary networks on the Island. 

Call 01983 823600 or email contact.centre@iow.gov.uk.
