The Government’s announcement on 9th September of a six person gathering limit will clearly affect activities within St Catherine’s Centre.
It is clear that many Church and Hall activities will no longer be able to take place from Monday 14th. There are a list of exemptions to this rule, and we are currently seeking to more fully understand what they are.
However, for now, we can confirm :-
- Our Sunday Services in the Church building will continue unchanged.
Religious services are exempt from the new ruling. We must continue to operate a Covid-secure environment which includes wearing face coverings. - The Café will continue opening – with it’s reduced hours (Thursdays and Fridays) and limited menu.
Covid-secure Hospitality services are exempt, but must now enforce the six person limit, so large groups sharing tables will not be possible. - Tuesday get Together will no longer be meeting until this restriction changes.
As the Government issues more guidance, further decisions on other groups can be made. Please contact your group organiser for details on any specific activity.
At this week’s Mothers Union meeting, Rev Gill Rowell will be talking about on her Ethiopian Pilgrimage.
