Whilst UK Gov Plan B restrictions will be lifted from 27th January, COVID is still in circulation, and we encourage a continued responsible approach at our orienteering events. Entrants have agreed to abide by the British Orienteering Participant Code of Conduct. People have different risk tolerances, please respect other personal choices as normality returns, and in particular, maintain inter-personal distance when at the Assembly, Start and Download. Use the hand sanitisers provided before picking up your EMIT e-TAG, as well as those at the Start, Download and the toilets.
Before attending any sporting activity you should self-assess for symptoms of COVID-19. These are:
•A high temperature;
•A new, continuous cough;
•A loss of, or change to, your sense of smell or taste.
If you, or anyone you live with, have one or more of these symptoms you should not attend any sporting activity, even if your symptoms are mild. You should follow NHS guidance on testing and self-isolation.
Note that later strains of COVID-19 may have different symptoms including sore throat and headache and may not involve coughing. If you have any the symptoms above, or similar to a cold, you should conduct a lateral flow test and only come to the event if the result is negative.
If you have been informed that you need to self-isolate by NHS Test and Trace (or are required to self-isolate in relation to travel), you must do so. You should not leave your isolation location in order to participate in sport and physical activity.
