Two webinars will help north-east groups navigate the challenges faced to reopening community facilities and village halls as a result of the pandemic.
There has been “considerable confusion” around which activities are permitted under each phase of the Roadmap, with no specific guidance for community facilities.
As a result, many organisations are now urgently seeking answers and support as they work towards re-opening their popular facilities which host an array of social and leisure activities.
Aberdeenshire Council will now host two webinars to answer those questions. The first will take place on Friday from 2pm-3pm and the second on Thursday, August 27 from 5.30pm-7pm.
Reid Hutchison, community economic development co-ordinator with Aberdeenshire Council, said: “There will be various regulatory elements for these community groups to navigate along with emerging good practice including the likes of detailed risk assessments which they will have to undertake.
“We hope that in setting up these webinars and signposting to support within the council and our third sector support partners, that this will provide confidence and advice to community groups seeking to re-open.”
