UPDATE - CORONAVIRUS Your welfare

Following on from our notification of yesterday we have received further advice from HQ which advises cancelling all meetings scheduled for April and giving careful consideration to those planned between now and the end of March.

The final decision for your clubs is for your club committee to take bearing in mind your local circumstances but please bear in mind the risks to our more elderly members.

As reported yesterday, the insurance does not cover cancellations.  So if you do decide to cancel, let your demonstrator/speaker/teacher know as soon as possible.  If a meeting is cancelled at short notice, do remember that you will be liable for the cost of the flowers if the demonstrator has already purchased them or is committed to take them from their wholesaler.

In the light of the advice we have received from HQ and the current situation we have reluctantly had to cancel JDSE&P day.  We will be contacting clubs individually to arrange for refunds of the ticket money and to arrange the distribution of the Kent News.

If you have any concerns and would like to discuss this please contact Gill Smaggasgale – Vice Chairman (gillsmaggasgale@yahoo.co.uk – 01732 760552)
