- | Following on from the Prime Ministers statement | + | For the latest |
- | Firstly I will stress that it is not Mendip | + | * St Cuthbert' |
+ | * Charterhouse Caves reopen on 13th June. | ||
+ | * Fairy Cave Quarry Caves reopen on 13th June. | ||
- | However, | + | Please follow |
- | The PM made it very clear that you can meet one friend outside keeping 2 mts distance. Caves are not outside and the caving code states a minimum of 4 in a group. So unless it is a family living together its difficult. | + | </ |

- | The only pastimes allowed are golf, tennis | + | <col xs=" |

- | MCR have made certain preparations if we are called out but the practicalities of wearing PPE in a cave would make any rescue prolonged. In addition we have protocols | + | BCA have issued |
- | Of course we would not hesitate to attend a call out but it could take longer than normal with some cavers self-isolating. Not only would rescuers be putting themselves at risk of contracting the virus from a casualty but the casualty would also be at risk from the rescuers. | + | </ |
+ | </ | ||
- | The goodwill we have with landowners on Mendip could well be put in jeopardy if cavers start arriving. The club huts are all still closed as are most caves. The two longest caves, St. Cuthberts and Swildons Hole are closed | + | <col xs=" |
+ | <panel type=" | ||
- | Finally caving and British Caving in particular gained enormous praise from the public and great PR following | + | BCRC have issued a press release |
- | So please stay safe. | + | </ |
