You will be aware that the current situation in regard to the Covid-19 virus is improving.  With our groups beginning to start up again the advice from the Third Age Trust is to follow the advice of the home country:

The legal requirement to wear masks in hospitality settings has already been removed but the Welsh Government "strongly advise" people to wear them voluntarily.

Continue to wear your masks and sanitize if it feels like the right thing to do!  However, we do not need to Risk Assess a venue unless it is new and has not been done before. If you still want to sanitize surfaces feel free – every positive action helps.  

If you need to car share do so in the safest way.  Where it cannot be avoided, you should take steps to minimise the risk of coronavirus such as increasing physical distancing as much as possible, opening windows for the whole journey or for 10 seconds at a time, wear a face covering and take a test after 24 hours.

Venue Risk Assessments:

If using a venue for the first time please use the u3a Venue Risk Assessment Checklist.

For each meeting we recommend you use this  Venue Day of Use Checklist - it is quick and not too onerous.

If you need help, in any way, please let us know so we can provide you with help and support.

Please will you check that your groups and friends are aware of this notice, especially those who don't use computers.
