Today (2 December) marks the end of the second lockdown in England, with York moving into Tier 2 (high level restrictions). 

Many voluntary, community and social enterprise (VCSE) sector organisations have remained open by adapting their services during the lockdown period. However, your organisation may be starting to think about opening up, or planning to open up your building/offices and returning to face-to-face service delivery.

On 22 October we delivered a training and information session on re-opening buildings and services following a period of closure. You can view the full training session below and you can download the slides here.

If you have any specific questions or need guidance on how your organisation opens up after a period of closure due to COVID-19, please get in touch with our Operations Manager, Lisa Egginton via: lisa.egginton@yorkcvs.org.uk. You can also book a visit to the Priory Street Centre to see what York CVS has put in place following the latest Government guidelines.
