The Prime Minister announced last night (Monday 23 March) that most shops and other premises must now close until further notice.  This includes ‘community centres, youth centres and similar’, with the exception that ‘Facilities may remain open for the purpose of hosting essential voluntary or public services, such as food banks or homeless services.’  In the context of village halls, this may also include those hosting services such as a village shop, post office or preschool with provision for the children of key workers.  Please see page 4 of the guidance at this link.
