Current Covid Restrictions

It should go without saying, but if you have symptoms DO NOT ATTEND ANY CLUB EVENT, self-isolate, and get yourself a test. Ditto if you have returned from a country or area where you are required to quarantine.

COVID-19 Officer

Mountaineering Scotland has strongly suggested that clubs appoint a 'COVID-19 Officer'. The club feels that this is a good idea, and will, in the event of any outbreak or positive result provide both the club and NHS Test and Protect with a single point of contact. The COVID Officer may be contacted here Currently, the 'officer' is Karen.

Club Day Meets

Now that Scotland has moved 'Beyond Level Zero', club day meets may resume at any number without our needing to collect details for contact tracing purposes. Any club member may organise a day meet.

Car sharing is allowed once again.

Keep an eye on the meets list for day meets.
