COVID 19 MASK WEARING UPDATE
Everyone aged 12 years and older (unless exempt) is required to wear a face mask from Tuesday 21 December 2021.
Wearing a mask reduces the chance of passing the virus on to others if a person is unknowingly infected with COVID-19, and helps to protect you against infection.
Public Health has stated that if a person has a disability that prevents wearing a mask they must have an exemption from their GP or Health Professional.
If this applies to you you will need to have a copy of this exemption on your person.
