FACE COVERINGS UPDATE

It is mandatory for our colleagues, and all visitors, to wear face coverings at all times.

The wearing of a face covering for all visitors and customers also remains mandatory. In the interest of our colleagues and customers please ensure you have your covering in place prior to arrival. Those without a face covering may be turned away.

It is important to note that some of our customers may be exempt from wearing a face covering. The conditions under which this may apply are listed below;

young children under the age of 11
not being able to put on wear or remove a face covering because of a physical or mental illness or impairment, or disability
if putting on, wearing or removing a face covering will cause them severe distress
if they are travelling with or providing assistance to someone who relies on lip reading to communicate
to avoid harm or injury, or the risk of harm or injury, to themselves or others
to avoid injury, or to escape a risk of harm, and they do not have a face covering with them
to eat or drink, but only if they need to
to take medication
if a police officer or other official requests they remove the face covering

In line with the guidance from the government which states; “Shops and supermarkets will be expected to encourage compliance with the law (as they would do more generally) and can refuse entry. If necessary, the police have the powers to enforce these measures, including through issuing a fine of £100 (halving to £50 if paid within 14 days)”.
