March 2021 – COVID Status March 3, 2021 (updated March 3, 2021) | By stadmin England moves to Amber readiness level from 29 March. Following an announcement from the National Youth Agency (NYA), we’re pleased to say that face-to-face meetings in England can restart from Monday 29 March. From 29 March, we’ll move to Amber, with Groups allowed to meet outdoors in group sizes of 15 plus leaders (5 maximum). From 12 April, both outdoors and indoors meetings will be allowed in group sizes of 15 plus leaders (5 maximum). From 12 April, you’ll be allowed to take part in non-residential day trips and visits. Updates on residentials in the UK and larger group sizes are expected to be announced in the coming months. These dates follow the government’s roadmap – they’re subject to the vaccination programme continuing at the same rate and the rate of infections reducing across the country.
