Secretary, North Norfolk Labour Party

Dear Member,

I have received an email from the national Labour Party advising that CLPs (Constituency Labour Parties), cancel all meetings and events and suspend campaigning activities. This means that the All Members Meeting planned for 19th March did not go ahead and there will be no other meetings until further notice.

The national Party has also pointed out that ‘the official advice (here) for those feeling unwell has now changed and we must ensure we all respond accordingly to prevent the spread of the virus.

If anyone has symptoms of coronavirus infection, however mild, they must stay at home and not leave their house for 7 days from when symptoms started. This action will help protect others at work and in their community whilst they are infectious.

Stay at least 2 metres (about 3 steps) away from other people at home whenever possible and sleep alone, if that is possible;

Wash hands regularly for 20 seconds, each time using soap and water.

Please do keep up to date on the NHS website.’

If you have any North Norfolk Labour Party matters please contact me:

Wishing you well,
