Please do not hesitate to contact me by phone for a chat (0131 663 4286), or if you are feeling isolated, if you are not able to get out for food, or if I can help in any other way.
If I am out – leave a message and I’ll try to get back as soon as I can.
I will try to do the same with e-mails, but please be aware that due to the volume of e-mails coming in, there is a danger that these may be lost track of.

Please think of anyone you know who may be isolated or anxious.
Get in touch with them or phone me with details or make sure they have my phone number.

There is now a parish facebook page so please click on the link and ‘like’ the page.
I will be putting regular updates on the page.
