Covid-19 Update for Arundel & Elgin Garden Residents

NO GUESTS: In light of the recent Government orders to ‘Stay at Home’ to stop Coronavirus (COVID-19) spreading, we must ask residents to NOT invite guests into the Arundel/Elgin Communal Gardens until further notice.

SOCIAL DISTANCING: Government guidelines state that people should minimise the amount of time spent out of their homes and should keep two metres (6ft) away from people they do not live with. There should be NO children playdates, group games, picnics, parties, etc. Any gatherings of more than 2 people (except for families) violates Government policies for Social Distancing. Also please remember bicycles are not allowed in the garden.

PROTECTING OUR VULNERABLE RESIDENTS: We have several residents who are elderly or identified vulnerable people. These residents need to access the communal garden as well. Please be aware of the Government recommended policy of only going outside once a day for no more than 1 hour. Parents should be mindful of how often their children are in the garden.
