The Health Foundation has announced it is cancelling a number of its events in the coming months due to the COVID-19 situation.
Among the events cancelled are the organization鈥檚 annual golf tournament and the Bernie鈥檚 Journey Run held in co-operation with Close Cuts in the city.
And, so has the popular Rhythm'n Ribs.
鈥淚t has to be cancelled,鈥 said Foundation Executive Director Ross Fisher. 鈥淓ven if they start to relax things they鈥檙e never going to let us have thousands of people (at an event).
The Health Foundation Road Race set for late August has avoided cancellation, at least so far.
鈥淚t might go, but the odds are low,鈥 said Fisher, again suggesting there are likely to be low limits on the numbers of people allowed to gather until such time as a vaccine for COVID-19 is developed.
That means the 25th edition of the Health Foundation Gala in October is still questionable as well.
Fisher said 鈥渨ithout a vaccine鈥 holding the Gala will be unlikely, but no decision has yet been officially made.
