We reduced our capacity to 80%.
Customers queued in an orderly manner socially distanced and got served behind screens keeping staff and customers safe. And then sat down on sanitised

Tables and chairs between screens. And their food and drinks were served at the table by a server wearing a face guard.
We served thousands of customers without incident.

Households could then only meet up in groups or bubbles. And footfall was reduced further.
And again we rose to the occasion and did everything we were asked to!
The ONS data was then published showing hospitality was only responsible for 2-3% of outbreaks

But we have tried to make our venue as covid safe as possible
I don’t get stressed about my business and we will survive, but I do get stressed about the injustice I believe we are being subjected to.

An industry shut in all but name, our staff supported but derisory grants for hospitality businesses that will kill an industry.
A government showing data to support their claim that hospitality need to be closed, is frankly laughable!
