YOU ARE ALLOWED EXEMPTION IN THE 5KM RESTRICTION IN ORDER TO TAKE CHILDREN TO PERMITTED TRAINING ( Branch calendar as proof if required ) While I understand the implications involved to those organizing training within the Branches and the importance of 1 Risk assessment 2 Contact tracing 3 Venue procurement it is important to keep in mind the needs of young people, their social and mental skill development during this global pandemic.
