Club Statement  - Club Opening Up Plan 12th May 2020

12/5/2020

 


Firstly, thank you for your patience over the last few months. We really appreciate your continued support in making this a safe and successful club.

Following the revised social distancing measures which were recently announced by the government, the club committee has been seeking further guidance and advice from Sport England and the various National Governing Bodies (NGBs). We believe we can now restart some of the club’s activities, but this can only be done if all of us act responsibly and abide by the “social distancing” rules specified by the government.

The Committee has and will continue to monitor the situation and update you weekly when new information is provided. Our aim is to keep everyone safe - members, coaches, volunteers, members of staff and the public.

Therefore, we have agreed that the following activities will restart this week. We must stress that this is not a “return to normal”. There will be no formal club sessions – what we are doing is making the lake available for club members to use for their own exercise in line with the current government rules.

This has meant putting in extra restrictions and limitations on all the activities that are being allowed to take place. Unfortunately, it also means that restarting some club activities will be delayed until a safe way of operating can be agreed.

We have laid out the following timescales and new rules that have temporary been introduced for your safety. Please see the comments under the section, your section leader will advise any details on changes and how the section will operate.

Timescales

Wednesday 13 May – Main Car Park Re-opens 
Thursday 14 May – Angling, Open Water Swimming to restart (see below)
Friday 15 May – Café to re-open 9am till 3pm (Take Away only, Contactless Payments only)

 Additional Information - Please Read!
  • All users must abide by the current social distancing guideline issued by the UK Government. Failure to do so puts everyone at risk and jeopardises the reputation of the club. 
  • Please note of the rules on exercising. You can exercise with members of your household or with just one person from outside your household. If you exercise with someone from outside of your own household, you must maintain social distancing. 
  • The building, including the changing rooms and WCs will not be open to the either the public or members of the club. 
  • Members who have their own boats and equipment stored in the boat store will be given access on one occasion only and by arrangement to collect their equipment. They must then take it home with them after use. 
  • These are not formal club sessions. There is no safety cover provided – you are responsible for your own safety around, on and in the water.
