Covid and health
Currently in the UK, there are no covid restrictions in place. But in order to protect our colleagues we will be asking our conference attendees to do the following:
· Testing: Please take a lateral flow test each morning before attending the conference venue (and it might be sensible to take one before you travel, if possible). Lateral flow tests are available to buy in most UK pharmacies for around £2 each. We will keep a small supply of LFTs at the venue for anyone who forgets, or who isn't able to purchase tests. We won't be policing testing - we ask that you test out of courtesy to others.
· Masks: We suggest that audience members wear a face covering during talks, unless you are speaking (e.g. asking a question).
· Symptoms: If you are feeling unwell, please stay away from the venue! We are not set up for online talks, but in a pinch we should be able to sort something out.
· If you have covid: Do not attend the conference venue. Please let the organisers know ASAP. The NHS advice pages on covid can be found here: https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/coronavirus-covid-19/
· Access to healthcare: See https://www.nhs.uk/ for information about health services in the UK. If you become unwell and need assistance, you can (a) ask a pharmacist - they are trained to help with minor ailments; (b) call NHS 111: this is the non-emergency health advice line. Most hotels will also offer to help you find a doctor.
· If the political situation changes: We don't expect covid restrictions to prevent the conference taking place in person, but who knows?! In the event that we have to cancel, we will let everyone know as soon as possible. We will do everything in our power to ensure that no one is left out of pocket. We don't plan to move the conference online.
