NACCC has surveyed its member centres in relation to the pandemic. We have the latest figures (as at 1st October 2020) to share with you. These figures reflect a huge amount of hard work that is going on behind the scenes ensuring risk assessments, equipment, new layouts and safety procedures are all in place. We are not wanting to put pressure on centres to reopen as it is of utmost importance that centres reopen safely.
