RE-OPENING OF BUSINESS
We wish all businesses that will be reopening in the coming weeks the best of luck. We hope they will get plenty of local support and that people will remember to continue to maintain social distancing, good hand hygiene and coughing and sneezing etiquette. While we have made great progress people need to exercise judgement and control for their own sake and also for the collective good.
