Hello,
It continues to be a worrying time with Covid-19 still having a significant impact. Our biggest priority continues to be the safety of our residents and staff and we have amended our ways of working (but still adhering to Government guidelines) to deliver as full a service as possible during this time.
All of us at Connexus are working as hard as we can to get services back to normal as soon as possible. Despite the likely restrictions during this time, I would like to take this opportunity to wish you a very Happy Christmas and let’s hope that 2021 is a more positive year for all of us!
