New national restrictions aimed at reducing Covid-19 infections begin in England from 5 November.
On the 31st October 2020, the Prime Minister announced plans for a new England-wide lockdown to address an increase in COVID-19 infections. This second lockdown is different from the first as schools, colleges and universities are remaining open. This also means the youth sector can remain partially active during this period within adherence to NYA guidance for the RED readiness level.
The NYA has published a paper that sets out what is permitted across the youth sector until at least the 2nd December 2020, available via the link below:

You are advised to read the NYA’s full version 3 guidance in addition to the fact sheer as this works in tandem with the NYA’s main guidance document. The full fact sheet is available from:
