Orbit and the Chartered Institute of Housing (CIH) make the case for change, as governments across the UK decide how to boost investment after the COVID-19 crisis.

The Grow, Cook and CrEATe project, which provides online cooking and gardening workshops to reduce loneliness and social isolation across Stratford District, says it has been delighted with the number of people who adapted to it becoming a remote service during the pandemic.

Three Orbit customers have a good yarn to tell about their time in lockdown after they knitted over 4,000 bands for key workers to attach their face masks onto, after nurses and carers complained about ear soreness.

Dorothy Mitchel, an Orbit customer of 23 years, has celebrated her 101st birthday at St. Marks Court in Rugby.

Orbit has given its backing to Coventry’s year as UK City of Culture.

Orbit, which was formed in the city in 1967, is supporting the Coventry City of Culture Trust as a City Champion.
