Minutes from our "post DERT" discussion the other day. I guess the key thing anyone who wasn't able to make it might be interested in is our plan for return to dancing when we are able. In summary, we need restrictions on social distancing to end in order for us to practice - currently the earliest this would be is 21st June. Following this, we would aim to do a crawl, noting that we may have to dance outside pubs at times depending on their opinions on it and any requirements at the time. Once we have had a crawl we can then look at events again, and will register interest in going to Bath Time at the end of October.

We would also want to check in with how people are feeling regarding this in case anyone has any concerns nearer the time. If you do, please let me or Becky know in the first instance.

While we still can't practice, we could potentially have the odd stepping practice within the guidelines - at the moment this is limited to 6 people (so 5 dancers and 1 musician). I will keep a close eye on guidelines if we do this, and the Morris Fed have a really helpful risk assessment to help organise this safely.

Otherwise, obviously we can meet socially! Once groups of 30 are allowed we'll organise an en masse Ravens meeting in a park somewhere. However, if you want to hang out with up to 6 ravens, please do - the spreadsheet we had last year is still around, although I think about 6 ravens have moved houses/are about to move house so it possibly needs updating. You don't have to have a whole postcode, you can just pop your general location in (e.g. Stockwell) which might help with working out who is nearby, who might be willing to travel in a favourable direction!

Hope you're all having a lovely week and hope to see some in person faces at some point soon!

Monday night zooms will obviously also continue!
