Covid restrictions
As a registered charity volunteers do not have to abide by the rule of six. However we will do so unless it is absolutely necessary.

The relevant paragraph reads as follows
Charity meetings – changes to the law on the number of people who can meet
The government has introduced new rules which mean that from 14 September it is against the law to meet in groups of more than 6, either indoors or outdoors. There are some exceptions where groups can be larger than 6 people and this includes providing voluntary or charitable services.
This means you can hold trustee or members’ meetings of more than 6 people where these meetings are necessary for providing charitable services.
