COVID Safe At All Social Events

Community event organisers are being urged to employ major health regulations while we are all still under threat from the pandemic.


The warning stems from the Western NSW Local Health District COVID-19 responsibilities and to have comprehensive COVID-19 plans in place.

Director of Public Health, Priscilla Stanley said, “We have been so fortunate in our region to have not had a lot of confirmed COVID cases. Despite several months where we had no active cases, the threat of a confirmed case is ever present”.


She also says that protection for communities still stands, and is “urging hosts of sporting, cultural and entertainment events, as well as private gatherings, to be aware of their responsibilities”.


Small businesses are also warned they could cop a fine if public health orders are not abided by.
