Irish Woodturners Guild

COVID-19 and the Suspension of Chapter Meetings.
The IWG Executive has reviewed our position on this in the light of the changing Public Health advice, and have decided that suspension of face to face Chapter meetings and all other IWG face to face activities will remain in place.
This suspension applies to all Chapters regardless of size. The Executive feels it would be irresponsible to allow the resumption of physical meetings, and that the resulting risk to our members health and welfare would be far too great.
The IWG Executive will keep the matter under review and will issue further updates as required. In the meantime if you have any queries or concerns you can contact any Executive Committee member or you Regional Representative.

Journal 92 Summer Edition has gone to print and should be with the membership by the end of next week.

Due to the ongong COVID-19 emergency the 2020 National Seminar has been cancelled. Details of future seminars will follow in due course. In the meantime, please stay safe and well.

As from today the IWG Executive has issued the following Health and Safety Bulletin on the coranvirus that is in Ireland.
