Following on from the previous post, the Committe have assessed information from the Government and the Rural Community Council and decided the following:

*A new risk assessment will be undertaken and shared with all regular users of the hall and all enquirers when making individual bookings

*The document will act as the foundation and benchmark for all covid protocols in the hall and will be in line with the ‘Step 4’ advice

*Any group or individual person hiring the hall can increase the level of restriction and impose further protocols, as they see fit, for their event or activity. This no longer needs to be in the form of a written risk assessment and will be the responsibility of the hirer to manage and inform their guests/attendees

*Individuals then make their own decisions regarding their use of the hall and enter the hall for any activity at their own risk

Hand sanitiser will remain be available, the stage will be returned to it’s pre lockdown position and the 30 minute gap between bookings will remain in place.

We sincerly thank you for your support and continued cooperation.

To all our valued customers and members of our local community.

Although the Coronavirus restrictions in England are easing on the 19th July, to ensure the safety of all users the Memorial Hall Committee have decided to maintain the current provisions in place for Step 3 until further guidance from the Government and the Rural Community Council has been properly assessed and discussed at the next committee meeting on the 17th August.

We want to keep our community as safe as possible and require some time to assess the risks associated with the Step 4 changes.

In the meantime hand sanitiser will still be available, please observe social distancing and masks where possible and follow the one way system in and out of the hall.

We sincerly thank you for your continued cooperation.

Dear all

With the current situation regarding the COVID-19 virus pandemic, and the recent advice from the UK Government, the trustees of the Packington Memorial Hall have taken the decision to close the hall until further notice.

The trustees have not made this decision lightly, however slowing the spread of the virus, particularly to those vulnerable members of our community is our highest concern, and we believe that temporarily removing this communal area will help in this regard.

The hall will of course reopen as soon as the advice from the government changes.

In addition the AGM that was scheduled for tomorrow is also cancelled until further notice.

We thank you sincerely for your understanding.

The Packington Memorial Hall Trustees
