Halloween can be a lot of fun for children and young people, but it can also be distressing and intimidating for older people. If you are going to go “trick or treating” please respect and consider others and follow COVID-19 guidelines, that way everyone can have a safe and enjoyable time. Children should always be with a responsible adult and respect that some people may not want trick or treaters.

Please enjoy yourself but remain safe!
