COVID IS STILL WITH US ….

FEELING UNWELL ? PLEASE TEST BEFORE COMING TO ANY REHEARSAL

Do not attend if you have a positive test result or if you have any of the recognised Covid-19 symptoms (temperature, new continuous cough or loss/change in taste or smell) Or you are a close contact of someone who is Covid-positive (until you have received a negative test result).
 
If you have recently attended rehearsal and then receive a positive test result, please ensure you notify the a member of the committee.
 
We recommend that you avoid attending rehearsal if you are feeling unwell (e.g. cold symptoms) to avoid the unnecessary spreading of illness.
 
Please make use of the hand sanitiser available in the town hall and, while masks are no longer mandatory, please respect any member who has a preference to continue wearing these.

Please make sure you look out for your Mailchimps.

These emails from the Management Team are the way we  keep everyone informed about what is currently happening.

Often the Mailchimps require a response, though NOT directly to the mailchimp address! There is usually a link highlighted to the relevant subject.  Don’t be shy about responding,  volunteering to do things, share ideas, comment on future plans etc.
We like hearing from you!
