Sandy Bay Park Residents Association (SBPRA)

It has been suggested that the Residents Association set up a Buddy system for folks to nominate a friend/neighbour/family member to be contacted if they fall ill or are not seen out and about for a period of time.

Whilst this is a good idea, the Residents Association are not able to organise and maintain this.  This is for a number of reasons.

Data Protection is problematic and a minefield to navigate.

Security of your and our emails, given you will be offering up other people's names and numbers

maintaining the list... people move, change numbers etc.

Responsibility for the members of the Association 

Therefore, we suggest that if you know elderly/poorly/at risk people on the park, you speak to them directly if you feel they may need assistance.   We know that many of you already do this, also you hold others door keys for them, and have their families details.

If you feel you may need support, then do please talk to those people you know and trust and perhaps you can organise something with them.

For those of you that wanted a database, I am sorry, but we are not able to help with this, due to the reasons given above.
