b.  restricting the number of customers entering the show rooms at any one time  

c.  limiting the numbers in  the fair rooms in a measured entrance/exit ratio throughout the show day

d. we shall extend the opening hours of the show, to avoid undue congestion at the beginning of the day

3. Although each venue is different, we shall be limiting the number of traders attending the shows and spreading out the trading tables in the show rooms to comply with the social distancing regulations as set out by the current government guidelines.  We shall be limiting the customer numbers within the show room, which will be monitored from the front desk.

4. We assume that the venue will take care of any enhanced cleaning  measures  to get the venue ready  for  our event, including cleaning the kitchen with antibacterial materials  and also the door handles, light switches, hire tables and chairs that they will provide.  We shall be supplying Antibacterial  Wipes on fair reception for additional cleaning throughout the day by fair staff, with additional supplies available for  traders should they need them.


5. Portable hand sanitizing units and extra antibacterial wipes have been purchased and will be on fair reception and in the fair rooms ensuring that there is plenty of opportunity for people to use this necessary equipment.  Each trader will also be responsible for their own individual antibacterial needs.

c.  that there will be a one-way system   in operation

d.  No Mask – No Entry  signs for customers attending


7. Gloves, masks and/or face coverings have been purchased for MGM Staff and will be provided for all traders attending the show.  Customers are being requested to provide their own masks and face-coverings. No-Mask No entry signs will be displayed at fair reception.   If customers do not have a face-covering they will be able to purchase face masks on reception, before entering.


8. Customers attending will be asked to complete an adapted Free Prize Draw slip on arrival, to apply track and trace strategies, which may be needed for the government.  These slips will be held at the MGM  office, under the Data Protection Act criteria  and kept  on file for the required 21 days.


9. Use of the venue kitchens will only be used to provide light refreshments for the traders,  with  a maximum of 4 people allowed in, at any one time. Following advice from Environmental Health, users are advised to wear face shields and masks whilst working in the kitchen.


This risk assessment may be altered and updated as government requirements change.  Any group or individual who does not adhere to the new guidelines as set out in this document may be asked to leave the fair.
