Afternoon All,

Just a quick update as to where we as a division are regarding restarting meetings.

Currently we are awaiting contact from the town hall with the process of hiring the hall once again and also on the appropriate risk assessments. Sadly we don't envisage hearing anything until at least the end of August/beginning of September. Any opening up of the division at that point would be for adult members only at this moment in time.

When it comes to our youth sections; our badgers and cadets, St John as an organisation are still currently planning the return of our youth and therefore at this moment in time I don't have a return date currently. When I receive more news I will of course get this sent out to everyone.

If you have any questions please feel free to drop me an email: carys.ringrose@cowbridge.sjaw.org.uk

Thank you all for your patience with us over this period and please stay safe

Due to the current climate regarding COVID-19, Cowbridge Town Hall have suspended all hiring of the Town Hall. So as a result we are suspending Cowbridge Division meetings for the foreseeable future. I am saddened that this is the case but it is best to be safe. Look after yourselves everyone. Any questions please feel free to email me: carys.ringrose@cowbridge.sjaw.org.uk
