Everyone has a duty to comply with the advice provided by the Government in relation to COVID-19, in order to protect both themselves and others. A copy of Guidance for employers and businesses on coronavirus (COVID-19) is attached.

When people order home deliveries, they should tell drivers to leave deliveries outside for collection. Delivery drivers should not be invited into a person’s home.
