Singing in a pandemic risk mitigation guidelines
We have agreed the following guidelines for singing indoors. We ask all singers to kindly follow them.
We have agreed the following guidelines for singing indoors. We ask all singers to kindly follow them.
- All singers must take a lateral flow test in the 24 hours before a singing, and of course the result must also be negative. If your test is positive, please do not go singing till next time. We will have additional test kits available on the door for anyone who hasn't been able to do one.
- If you have any of the most common symptoms of Covid, again please do not go singing this time. The current most common symptoms are: runny nose, headache, fatigue, sneezing, sore throat.
- The doors and windows will be kept open while singing is happening. Consider coming wrapped up in case the hall is cold!
- Singers will be sat facing each other in four voice parts in the hollow square. You are welcome to sit further apart if that makes you feel more comfortable.
