Coronavirus statement

Our stance on the continuing public health developments

As part of the ongoing response to the outbreak of Coronavirus (COVID-19), WCVA is paying close attention to advice provided by UK Government as well as guidance from Public Health Wales.

Although UK Chief Medical Officers have raised the risk to the UK from low to moderate, we are not currently planning on cancelling any events and continue to operate on our usual day to day basis.

We would recommend that everyone follow NHS hygiene advice and any returning travellers from certain countries with confirmed cases of Coronavirus should follow recommendations laid out here.

We will continue to monitor any developments and will inform the voluntary sector of any further action we take as things change.
