I’m sure you are aware of the Government advice to avoid pubs and clubs. The purpose of this notice is to explain what the Parwich British Legion Club plans to do and the thinking that supports this decision.

We intent to remain open until instructed to close or until it is not financially viable.

We will manage risks by:

• Enforcing strict hygiene measures to reduce the risk of transmission
• Request all customers and staff wash their hands before entering the club
• Limit opening hours to 6pm to 10pm
• Request people pay by card rather than cash if possible
• Postpone all indoor special events
• If consistent with current guidance, we will consider outdoor events when the weather is good enough

We believe that remaining open represents a relatively low risk, having taken the following factors into account:

• We are a small club where most people are known to each other, with few guests from outside the village
• At risk individuals will have taken appropriate steps to self-isolate
• Staff are in favour of and support remaining open

As this is a rapidly changing situation, you will be updated of any changes to this position.

Lastly, we would like to thank all our staff and customers for their support and understanding during this unusual and particularly difficult time.
