    Wristbands used to send a clear message - keep your distance... (or not!)

    HSE issues updated advice on the wearing of facemasks at work

    PPE in non-healthcare businesses For most people any potential infection from coronavirus will not be because of their work. If you do not normally wear a face mask, or any other PPE for work, then you do not need to because of coronavirus. There is currently no evidence that using face masks outsid

    Far-UVC Lighting

    Onsite Testing

    Would Onsite Testing be an idea? Setting up field laboratories like we have seen for anti doping testing at sporting ideas might be something to help out with quick test.

    Hands-free sanitiser dispensers... pedal-operated pedestal version

    There's going to be so many options for sanitiser dispensers out there in the market, but thought these were a neat proposal - foot-operated pedal version, so hands-free (good for me!) but also fairly aesthetically smart... https://www.hand-cleaner.co.uk/product-page/pedestal-sanitiser-station-foot

    https://www.hse.gov.uk/food/disinfectants.htm Good Guidance from HSE on disinfection as food and other businesses open and maybe using new types of disinfection.

    Protection of staff

    Something to definitely consider is the aspect of allowing social distancing for staff as well. Clients will have to consider that breakouts for example or smaller conferences will need to reduce in size not just for their delegates to sit further apart, but also for the crew to sit further apart be
