The WLHG regrets, we have decided to postpone the talk we had arranged for the 4th December. As you probably know, several Walberswick villagers have contracted Covid recently and this prompted us to think carefully about whether we could manage the risk effectively.
We have been given guidance by Suffolk County Council, and whilst we could comply with most of their recommendations there are a couple that caused us concern. Firstly, we would have to restrict numbers to enable social distancing and secondly, we should ensure adequate ventilation.
This would normally be our major meeting of the year and a social event where members and guests chat to each other over drinks and snacks. It is always well attended so limiting the numbers would mean disappointing several people. As for ventilation, leaving doors and windows open in the Village Hall could mean a very chilly meeting.
