Whilst I appreciate that many WT members are also S7 Group members too, you may not have seen the latest news on the Group website. The latest news item is reproduced below.
The COVID-19 Pandemic
We are all now facing the arrival and wide spreading of the Covid-19 virus pandemic. This is known to be much more serious in its impact on the older part of our population. Many of our members (including some committee members) will have been advised to isolate themselves at home for a period of 12 weeks starting on 22nd March 2020. We the ScaleSeven Group Committee have a primary responsibility to protect the health and wellbeing of all our members. Accordingly we are taking the following actions to protect you to the maximum extent we can.
We urge you all to follow your governments’ recommendations, isolating yourselves where necessary so that you minimise the chances of catching the virus.
We all have to work together as best we can to stop the spread of this virus and bring this pandemic to an end as fast as is possible.

On behalf of the Scaleseven Committee.

We the ScaleSeven Group Committee have a primary responsibility to protect the health and wellbeing of all our members. Accordingly we are taking the following actions to protect you to the maximum extent we can.
- We have postponed the Annual General Meeting with a provisional plan to reinstate it at the national meeting planned for Mark on 10th October 2020, assuming that it is possible and safe to proceed with that event at that time. If it is not possible to hold the Mark event we will review how best to manage the situation.
- The national meeting booked for Albury for 25th April is postponed to a date to be decided when it is safe to hold the event.
- The S7G Committee will suspend all physical meetings, but will continue to manage activities as required by email and telephone.
- The S7 Stores will continue to supply members with stores items. This may take longer than normal to package up and post ordered items to S7 members due the impact of the virus. Please bear with us in this situation as we will do the best we can to fulfil all orders.
- We may have to suspend publication of the newsletter if the committee members involved are unable to carry out their duties due to isolation requirements.
- The existing S7G Committee will remain in place until we hold the next AGM.
- We may co-opt additional committee members to help us run the S7 Group to replace members who have resigned or retired. Where this occurs the co-opted members will submit their nomination(s) for approval at the next AGM.
We urge you all to follow your governments’ recommendations, isolating yourselves where necessary so that you minimise the chances of catching the virus.
We all have to work together as best we can to stop the spread of this virus and bring this pandemic to an end as fast as is possible.
