Coronavirus

Introduction

February 2022

In England, as of 24 February, we are now in the government's 'Living with Covid-19' phase of their response to the coronavirus pandemic.

This means that there are now no coronavirus-related legal restrictions in place.

All forms of activity can take place with no coronavirus-related restrictions on how many people can participate, and all sports facilities can open.

We will update these pages once there is further guidance issued by the government and Sport England.

Further information is available on Sport England's website.

The Covid-19 Response: Living with Covid-19 is available on the government's website

The government guidance outlines safer behaviours to adopt to reduce the risk of catching and passing on Covid-19 by:

• Getting vaccinated;
• Letting fresh air in if meeting indoors, or meeting outside;
• Wearing a face covering in crowded and enclosed spaces, especially where you come into contact with people you do not usually meet, when rates of transmission are high;
• Trying to stay at home if you are unwell;
• Taking a test if you have COVID-19 symptoms, and staying at home and avoiding contact with other people if you test positive; and
• Washing your hands and following advice to ‘Catch it, Bin it, Kill it’.

We recognise that decisions that apply to activities in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland will be taken by the devolved administrations. For further information and current advice contact Scottish Canoe Association, Canoe Wales and Canoe Association of Northern Ireland.
