We are continuing to share information about local support and advice that is available on our website and social media channels. We are also continuing to keep in touch with community organisations, faith groups and statutory authorities to share information about support which is available locally. Find out more about the Town Council's Response to Covid-19.

Newton Leys Pavilion is currently being used by Buttons Pre-School and a small number of regular bookers who fit into the exemptions from the rule of 6 and comply with our risk assessments. We are not taking future bookings for parties or social events at the moment and we are regularly reviewing government guidance. We look forward to welcoming back our regular users and new hirers when it is safe to do so.
