A free webinar, organised by Kent County Council, takes place next month to advise businesses on how to safely reopen as the latest national lockdown rules are eased.

According to the government's roadmap out of lockdown, non-essential shops can reopen from April 12 while offices are set to be encouraged to reopen as lockdown measures continue to be lifted this summer.

To help firms plan for the reopening, representatives from Kent County Council Trading Standards, Environmental Health, Kent Resilience Forum Enforcement, Kent & Medway Growth Hub and South East Water will take part in a webinar on Friday, April 9, from 1-2pm.

Those attending the online event will be able to ask the experts about the guidelines for re-opening businesses.

It will cover just what businesses can and cannot open, services which can be offered, and how to keep staff and customers safe.
