COVID-19 General Guidance
COVID-19 will be a feature of our lives for the foreseeable future, so we need to learn to live with it and manage the risk to ourselves and others.
As COVID-19 restrictions are lifted, it is important that we all use personal judgement to manage our own risk. All of us can play our part by exercising common sense and considering the risks.
While no situation is risk free, there are actions we can take to protect ourselves and others around us.
DO NOT enter the Club if you or someone in your household has recently tested positive or has COVID-19 symptoms.
The most important symptoms of COVID-19 are recent onset of any of the following:
​
-
a new continuous cough
-
a high temperature
-
a loss of, or change in, your normal sense of taste or smell (anosmia)
​
Wash your hands with soap and water or use hand sanitiser regularly throughout your visit.
Regular hand washing is an effective way to reduce your risk of catching illnesses, including COVID-19.
​
Although face coverings are not mandatory in hospitality settings or outdoors, we support all those who choose to wear one while at the Club.
Although social distancing is no longer mandatory, we ask all visitors to be respectful of each other’s personal space.

HWMI support the NHS COVID-19 Vaccination Programme.
The coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccines are safe and effective. They give you the best protection against COVID-19.
