Restrictions

Well life is about to get interesting on June 1st 2020 with pubs opening with 80 people aloud in and that means going out for dinner, YES so happy. Gyms and indoor fitness centres and boy that is needed as everyone has beefed up a bit while sitting home on the sofa in front of the TV. Lots of other goodies are on the list with funerals, beauty salons ALSO but I am here to say that OASA is NOT lifting their restriction at the moment. Our Stoma Clinic is starting up again and that means that there could be some vulnerable members coming in plus we still need to keep ourselves safe for our members so we can remain open.

Heather Walsh | President of OASA
