We have been given the go-ahead to restart outdoor face-to-face activities but our guidelines have changed again. This letter will let you know the steps we are taking to make sure we keep everyone safe.
Firstly, anyone with COVID-19 symptoms, or who has been in contact with anyone who has COVID-19 symptoms (within the last two weeks), shouldn’t come to face-to-face activities, and should follow government guidelines on self-isolation and testing.
Secondly, young people who are shielding or in a vulnerable group might not be able to return to face-to-face activities at this stage. Also, some young people, including those with additional needs, might need reasonable adjustments putting in place to support a return to face-to Scouting. Please email to discuss any concerns.

Martin will be there at 5.45 and at 7.35 only to take the card payments. We recognize that we are going through a period of financial uncertainty, so if you need to pay in instalments you can speak privately to me or to our Group Scout Leader, Martin.
Safety reminder. Parking on the church car park is for leaders only. Please do not stop on the yellow lines or in the residents’ parking when dropping off your child. Don’t forget to email me with any changes to contact details or medical information.
