Programme of Events
2021 - 22
Speaker meetings will resume 2 November 2021, 2pm at the Grant Arms Hotel, Osprey Suite. Because of social distancing, seats will be limited, so please email Sue Sykes (chair@grantownu3a.org) to reserve a ticket.
These will be hybrid meetings - those of you not wanting to join in person (or if we have too many people requesting tickets), can watch via Zoom.
However the decision to resume our speaker meetings has not been taken lightly and is certainly not without its problems. ScotGov is very clear: “It's important to remember that coronavirus hasn't gone away. We all need to follow the rules and guidance in place and continue to be careful.”
It is still mandatory in Scotland to wear a face covering in public places unless eating and drinking, and to provide contact details to be used should Track and Trace become necessary. For your safety we shall, of course, be abiding by these rules. In addition, we join other u3as in Scotland in observing the further advice from government: “keep a safe distance from people not in your household, especially indoors; the greater the distance the greater the protection - meet outdoors if possible, as this is safer than meeting indoors - avoid crowded places - open windows if you meet inside; the more fresh air you let in the safer it will be.”
