COVID Policy Update 

Nov 2022
The Board has decided that, consistent with practice across the community, the require­ment for people attending at the Box Factory to be vaccin­ated will no longer apply from 1 January 2023. In taking this decision, the Board draws the attention of members to the advice from govern­ment health officers that vaccin­a­tion is strongly recom­mended; for our members this will generally mean that four doses are received. While vaccin­a­tion cannot guarantee protec­tion from contracting COVID, it is clear that it can reduce the impact of the disease if you do catch it.
The Board has also reit­er­ated an earlier decision that mask-wearing is no longer mandatory.
Again, members should consider their own circum­stances when deciding whether or not to wear a mask. Factors to consider are the ability to maintain a social distance, the level of ventilation/air low at locations where you are, and consid­er­a­tion of the needs of others.
Finally, please do not attend courses if you are feeling unwell, partic­u­larly if you have any flu-like symptoms.
