In response to the recent announcement by World Health Organization about the global pandemic of the coronavirus (COVID-19), the Health Centre has put together a plan to protect our clients and staff. The risk in London is still considered low and there have been no cases of community transmission (when a known source of exposure cannot be identified) in Ontario. However, public health agencies and governments are recommending social distancing measures to help curb the spread of the virus.
Effective Monday, March 16th, 2020 COMMUNITY PROGRAMS WILL BE CANCELLED and our leadership team will reassess their status in two weeks. This includes:
- Sit and Get Fit
