Covid-19

We are providing advice and procedures as churches were allowed to reopen from July 4, 2020.

Documents provided by the Methodist Church, Government and other bodies are provided under tabs from this one, which will concentrate of providing our own explanations, pathways and templates.

The occurrence and stability of Covid-19 in buildings is described in the Risk Reduction file.
The 'Steps to take' file is designed to help you work through how you might open the church for worship and think about the risk assessment. Please do give comments to help us refine this.

From December 2, the country will revert to a regional system of restrictions based upon tiers. The allocation of tiers to areas is expected on November 25. The table shows the ground rules for places of worship under the different ties classes.
