Weekly Information - Thursday 20th May 2021
Please find some information below regarding EU Settled Status from Citizen's Advice Mid Mercia.
Citizen's Advice Mid Mercia are working alongside the Home Office in order to reach out to all of the families in Tamworth and East Staffordshire to support them with their EU Settled Status. The Home Office has recognised that not all families are aware that they need to ensure they have been granted settled or pre-settled status by the end of June 2021. If families do not apply for either their Pre-Settled Status or Settled Status, they will lose the right to live, work, education for their children, rent their homes, access the NHS or claim benefits and state pension.
The aim of our project is to raise awareness of the scheme, empower individuals to access the scheme and assist in applying to the scheme. Please see the attached poster for more details. If you feel that you may need need this service, drop in sessions are available at Winshill Resource Centre on a Tuesday 9.30 – 12, St Chad's, Hunter Street, Burton on Trent on a Wednesday 12.30 - 2.30 and Burton Library on a Thursday 10 - 12. Alternatively, please contact Lynn Webster on 07960 433977.

Doveridge Juniors FC U13s (Current Year 8), near Uttoxeter, would like to give you the opportunity to join our well-established team for next season at U14s (Year 9). Currently, we play in the BJFL on Sunday mornings, with home games at Abbotsholme School, near Rocester, playing on one of the finest junior pitches in Derbyshire.
Training is on Wednesdays. Pre-season will start on 9th June 2021 at Doveridge Playing Fields (on grass), from 7:30pm-9pm. Then we will have a short summer break, before returning at a date to be confirmed in mid-August. Winter Training for the last two seasons has taken place on Wednesdays 7pm-8pm @ Thomas Alleyne’s High School, Uttoxeter (on Astro).
We love our football at Doveridge: playing league games, friendlies and Futsal and in spite of the COVID pandemic we’ve played an amazing 27 games already this season!
Also, we enjoy our social events at Christmas and end-of-season, our trips to Wembley and other football grounds, and we tour every two seasons, alternating between Ireland and Sweden. Hopefully, we will be in Ireland again this August!
If you are interested please contact me on my details below. I look forward to hearing from you!
