COVID Safety
- We will be asking everyone to confirm that they have had a negative Covid test immediately prior to joining us at the retreat (you can order them via the Gov.uk website or pick them up locally).
- If you have not been able to take a test just before joining us, we will have a small stock of Lateral Flow Tests on site so that you can take a test when you arrive.
- If you test positive, we will ask you to return home and offer you a refund.
We are doing this because we have a broad range of people with different health conditions in the group and it’s important that we are able to create a safe space for us all to relax and enjoy the retreat together.
If you are unwilling to take the test, or you are unable to confirm that you have been tested, we will ask you to leave.
We understand that there are strong feelings around this issue and we hope that everyone will understand that this decision is not about restricting anybody’s freedom, it’s about finding the most effective way to make everyone in the group feel comfortable.
