Meetings Cancelled
Dear All,
We are writing to share critical pieces of information relating to the developing Coronavirus (COVID-19) situation.
Late this afternoon, Monday 16th March, the Prime Minister has said that everyone in the UK should now avoid non-essential travel and contact with others.
Given this guidance, all face-to-face Scout meetings, activities and events must be suspended from tomorrow, Tuesday, 17 March 2020. This suspension applies to young people and adults, and will be until further notice.
We must continue to respond to the developing situation in a calm, measured and appropriate way. We will continue to follow official guidance. The safety of everyone involved in Scouts, both young people and adults, is our number one priority. That is always at the heart of our decision making.
Keeping you updated
It is likely that this will impact us for the rest of this term, but we will keep you informed as best as we can.
The Government have now committed to daily briefings. To keep us up to date, Scouts UK have created a webpage: scouts.org.uk/coronavirus which will be updated from tomorrow.
