Last week we advised you of our decision to postpone the opening of the Ella Centre for one week until Monday 17 January. Since that time, we have spoken with our participants and carers and listened to their feedback, upgraded our safety protocols and monitored the evolution of the pandemic. Following this review and feedback we have regretfully decided to extend the postponement of group-based services at The Ella Centre until Monday 31 January. We will continue to monitor the situation for further developments and reassess closer to the return date.

The safety of our participants and staff is our priority. We will be in touch to advise you of when group-based services can safely resume. We look forward to welcoming back our participants, staff and carers in 2022.
