Social Distancing ~ Depending on the data closer to the time, the Government intends to reduce social distancing indoors to 1m on 19th July and abolish it on 9th August. We'll be looking at altering our church's and halls' seating arrangements.
Weddings ~ From Monday 28th June the person (such as the father of the bride) accompanying either of the couple down the aisle does not need to wear a face covering whilst doing so. The couple do not need to wear face coverings throughout the wedding liturgy.
Funerals ~ From Monday 28th June, families can once again carry coffins into/out of church and lower coffins into the grave, if the funeral directors and/or burial staff are content for that to happen and if parishes are content that it is safe. Everyone carrying the coffin must wear a face covering (unless exempt) and be encouraged to sanitise hands before and after doing so.
