Cobweb Orchestra COVID update: “living with COVID”, 23 February 2022
All mandatory precautions have been withdrawn but COVID continues to circulate in the community and still poses a risk to vulnerable people. The emphasis now is on common sense and responsible and considerate behaviour, which, in general, are qualities we are proud to uphold in the Cobweb family. We trust that you will not attend our events if you are experiencing viral symptoms or if you know you have COVID (or indeed any other infectious illness), and that you will continue to practice good hygiene such as hand washing etc. To protect our more vulnerable members, the only mandatory and enforceable “rule” is that an individual who requests 2m distancing while playing is given that courtesy. There are no other mandatory restrictions. The checklist spreadsheet is no longer needed to plan events and face coverings are voluntary. Kitchen facilities can be used sensibly. If some precautions are planned for a specific open event, applicants will be told in advance. Local group organisers have full discretion regarding any additional measures, depending on local circumstances and the views of their members.
