Covid-19 - lockdown relaxation
Following the government’s announcement that England has reached step 4 of the lockdown release plan on 19 July 2021, most legal restrictions affecting use of Goring Village Hall have been removed.
Nevertheless with high numbers of cases in our area the Management Committee of Goring Village Hall believe it would be prudent to re-open cautiously and in stages. So we are pleased to announce that Goring Village Hall is once again open but for the next few weeks we will only allow one hirer to use the hall at a time. If multiple hirers want to use the hall at the same time we will consult both parties to see if their events are compatible without reducing the Covid security of the premises.
Regardless of this we recommend all users to continue to wear masks inside the hall, to open doors and windows for maximum ventilation, to adopt sensible social distancing, to use hand sanitisers and regular washing of hands, and to employ a one way system for entry and exit. The QR codes for Track and Trace are being left up and we encourage their use.
We remind all hirers that as a condition of booking they must arrange insurance appropriate for their event and this may include liability arising from Coovid-19.
We will review matters in a few weeks as conditions change and hope we’ll get back to complete normality in the Autumn.
