The article explains what we have been up to during the Covid-19 pandemic and some new ways we are looking to expand the work of Host Nottingham, particularly by working with local agencies to try to find permanent private rented accommodation for refugees.

Host Nottingham and Covid-19

3/4/2020

0 Comments

 
Currently, Host Nottingham has made the decision to take on No NEW GUESTS at the present time. This decision has not been made lightly, but as a response to the government guidelines regarding the Covid-19 virus at this unprecedented time and because hosting can no longer take place in the format that we would usually operate. We have spoken to all our hosts about the current guidelines and happily we can say that many have decided to carry on hosting their guest, despite the challenges this may cause. We will continue to safeguard both our guests and hosts and update you as the situation changes.
