Like most people, we have been watching news reports about coronavirus and taking note of the Government advice. In view of the developing situation and our duty of care to everyone involved in the Epping Forest Civic Awards Dinner, we have reluctantly decided to postpone next week’s event as a precautionary measure.

We know that this will come as a disappointment to everyone. The Civic Awards promised to be a very enjoyable evening, celebrating our community. However, we are already making arrangement to reschedule later in the year.

It is worth emphasising that this is a precautionary measure. We hope that you and your guest will understand the reasons for our decision and support the course we are taking. It is a postponement rather than a cancellation and it is our intention to seek a new date to hold the event in the early autumn. We very much hope you will be able to join us then.

Due to the current situation regarding the Corona Virus and the spread of Covid19, the Chairman, Councillor V Metcalfe has been consulted and it has been decided that the next meeting of the Epping Forest Local Highways Panel on the 30 March 2020 at 5pm been cancelled. The Highways Liaison Officer, Sarah Alcock will be in touch with members regarding the 2020/2021 Funded Works Programme.

(Further Information: Jackie Leither ext 4756)

Please be advised that the PFCC Meeting scheduled for 24th March has been cancelled.

The NEPP surgery scheduled for 7^th April has been cancelled.
