Updated Covid-19 Arrangements
On 21 October 2020, Dan Jarvis the mayor for the Sheffield City Region announced that as from Saturday 24 October 2020 South Yorkshire will move into the highest tier of the Covid-19 alert system. This acts as reminder to everyone that the Covid-19 virus continues to pose a serious risk to the health of the people of South Yorkshire. Rotherham along with the rest of South Yorkshire (Barnsley, Sheffield and Doncaster) must now adhere to stricter guidance from Saturday.
We were unable to hold our planned AGM (for the financial year 2018-2019) this year due to the lockdown in March.
We are now giving formal notice to LASER Credit Union members of a virtual AGM to be held using Zoom on Wednesday 11th November 2020 at 1.30 pm.
Yesterday afternoon the Government reminded everyone that the Covid virus continues to pose a serious risk to health, and tightened the rules for individuals and businesses. The new rules are expected to last for months, and may be tightened further if infections increase.
The health and safety of our staff and our customers remain of paramount importance and we still, therefore, continue to operate with one member in the office at a time and a face covering must be worn.
