Coronavirus update (Temporary closure of services)
Coronavirus ….an urgent message for all our OPAL members and volunteers
OPAL Services is very aware of the way in which the coronavirus is spreading and of the implications for older people with underlying health conditions, be they our members or volunteers.
We have been taking advice from the Council and taking account of information from Public Health England on this very difficult matter.
We believe we need to temporarily close our services until we can guarantee a safer environment for the people we provide the services for, and for our volunteers.
Our Clubs at Frodsham, Helsby, Kelsall, Malpas, Tarporley and Tattenhall will be closed from Monday 16th March, as will all the other community services we provide. Please get in touch with your Organiser if you need more information and we will post further updates as soon as we have them.
Our intention is to reopen these services as soon as it is safe to do so.
This is a fast moving situation and we are aware things can change at short notice. Thank you for your support.
