Did you know: Someone vocalising an 'aah' sound followed by 10 seconds of normal breathing emits around 60 per cent more aerosols than 30 seconds of repeated coughing.
In order to prevent Northern Voices Choir from becoming a super spreader, we must follow the Covid safe plan.

In the event of a breach of guidelines
- If a teacher witnesses bullying or harassment, the person responsible will be spoken to privately.
- If a member expresses that they feel bullied or harassed, we will work together with them to decide what action/outcome would be best.
- Hopefully the individual simply didn’t realise and is happy to change their behaviour. However, if an individual continues to knowingly cause distress/harm to others after repeated warnings, we will be forced to ask them to leave.
