The latest guidelines can be found by CLICKING HERE

Little has changed except the restrictions on numbers has not returned. The usual precautions still apply. Some of the main points are as follows:

Religious services and weddings can now proceed without capacity limits but with all other protective measures remaining in place, in particular:

• Get vaccinated. Vaccination offers the best protection for you, your family and for others against severe disease
• Stay at home and do not attend a service if you have symptoms of an infectious illness including COVID-19
• Get tested if advised to do so and self-isolate if required. This still applies after you have been fully vaccinated.
• Clean your hands thoroughly and regularly
• Wearing a face covering/mask is recommended in places of worship
• Congregants are advised not to gather immediately outside the door before or after the service.

Below are some guidelines related to funeral services

• Family members, mourners, religious leaders, and funeral staff (e.g. funeral director, hearse attendant, etc) should not attend a funeral if they have COVID-19, or if they have symptoms of COVID-19, are awaiting a COVID-19 test result, or have been told by public health to restrict movements. This includes close contact with the deceased if the cause of death is COVID-19 related.
• Any physical interactions including shaking of hands and hugging should be discouraged.
• Optimise social distancing throughout all aspects of the service
• Cloth face coverings or masks should be worn for all indoor services by all present.
• Guards of Honour must observe social distancing requirements.
• Those gathering at the graveside should optimise social distancing and wear face coverings/masks.
