Notice to Members No.6
Hi All
Once again, we have yet another consideration to guide our club through. On the 12th of October, to be implemented on the 17th October, the government announced yet another version of how the country must try to fight the virus. This, as I’m sure you are aware, brought in different measures in different locations. The government refer to this as a tier system, but is also known as Medium (Tier 1), High (Tier 2) and Very High (Tier 3) levels of alert – restrictions.
The guidance to this which was published just recently, gives us as a club a further dilemma. Our members are generally local but also come from areas in different Tiers. See at https://www.gov.uk/guidance/local-covid-alert-levels-what-you-need-to-know
You can also find out which Tier you are in at : https://www.gov.uk/find-coronavirus-local-restrictions
The club is still in Tier 1 so we are not affected as far as opening is concerned at this point.
However again, this does affect how we as a club must operate.
In short:
If you are in Tier 1 then you can continue to enjoy the club under its current restrictions
If you are in a Tier 2 area you may only sit at a table with people from your household or one person living alone who you have exclusively formed a single bubble with.
If you are in Tier 3 then you may not visit the club at present.
This for the club is almost impossible for us to police so we have to ask you to be aware of which Tier your home address is in and abide by the rules accordingly to ensure all are safe when visiting our club. We would also respectfully ask that you add which tier you are in when signing in please.
This I know is far from ideal and all I can say is your committee will work swiftly and diligently to amend any rules as soon as we are able to do so.
In the meantime, keep safe
Kind Regards
Steve Hopper Commodore
