Restricted Re-opening

Church services will resume from 7th July 2020. But there are a number of restrictions to reduce the rist of coronavirus..

• No singing is allowed.
• Seating is drastically reduced to maintain 2 metre social distancing.
• Alternative rows used in Nave only for funerals. This allows for 12 individuals or bubbles up to a maximim of 24 attendees.
• Said Communion service to be held in the chancel on temporary seating this allows for 6 individuals or bubbles up to a maximum of 8.
• The idea of separate areas is to reduce the risk of cross-contamination between different services/attendees. Also no services will be held within 72 hours of each other.
• 2 Sanitising stations will be available.
• A give way system at pinch-points introduced. 
• Certain non-essential areas will be taped of to reduce potential contamination/cleaning.
• The above is subject to change to take into account Govt advice,and the 72hr rule which may result indifferent in communion times. 
• The first service will be held on Tuesday 7th July at 10.00am but you are advised to check the times of following services.
• The are no deep cleaning resources available, any track&trace developments may therefore render the church liable to a further period of closure.
