Covid Safety Measures

We understand how important it is to clearly communicate the measures we are taking to help limit the spread of Covid-19 at our events.

We recognise that re-infection can pose a serious risk, particularly for people living with ME, Fibromyalgia, and Long Covid. We are committed to doing what we can to create a safer environment by implementing Covid safety measures at our events.

We are continuing to learn and improve our approach over time. For our upcoming AGM, we will be:

Having FFP3 face masks available
Running two Smart Air SA600 purifiers. Thank you to Breathe Easy (https://breathe-easy.uk/) for providing the HEPA filters for this event.
Asking anyone who is unwell or showing symptoms (such as coughing, sneezing, sore throat) of any cold or flu to stay home and attend remotely
Offering an improved hybrid event experience to allow more people to attend virtually
Lateral flow tests offered to all SMEFG staff and volunteers
