The Carer’s Emergency Card offers free emergency support to adults living in Newcastle whose carer suddenly becomes unable to return and offer them care in the usual way. This could be because of a personal crisis such as sudden illness, accident or other emergency which occurs while they are away from home. The scheme supports carers to draw up an emergency contact plan or keep safe an existing plan. It is operational 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and 365 days a year, providing a rapid response in the event of a personal crisis as well as additional planned support to allow the carer to attend personal appointments.

Coronavirus Update (as at 13 October 2020)

Coronavirus (COVID-19)

The Prime Minister set out on October 12 how the government will further simplify and standardise local rules by introducing a three tiered system of local COVID Alert Levels in England.

Addressing MPs before hosting a Downing Street press conference, he confirmed the levels will be set at medium, high, and very high.

North East; Northumberland, North Tyneside, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Gateshead, South Tyneside, Sunderland and County Durham, to be classified in the 'High' level.

Local COVID alert level: high

This is for areas with a higher level of infections where some additional restrictions are in place.

This means on top of restrictions in alert level medium:

you must not socialise with anybody outside of your household or support bubble in any indoor setting, whether at home or in a public place

you must not socialise in a group of more than 6 outside, including in a garden or other spaces like beaches or parks (other than where specific exemptions apply in law)

businesses and venues can continue to operate, in a COVID-secure manner, other than those that remain closed in law

certain businesses are required to ensure customers only consume food and drink while seated, and must close between 10pm and 5am

businesses and venues selling food for consumption off the premises can continue to do so after 10pm as long as this is through delivery service, click-and-collect or drive-through

schools, universities and places of worship remain open

weddings and funerals can go ahead with restrictions on the number of attendees

exercise classes and organised sport can continue to take place outdoors. These will only be permitted indoors if it is possible for people to avoid mixing with people they do not live with or share a support bubble with, or for youth or disability sport

you can continue to travel to venues or amenities that are open, for work or to access education, but should look to reduce the number of journeys you make where possible

You must:

wear a face covering in those areas where this is mandated

You should continue to:

follow social distancing rules

work from home where you can effectively do so

walk or cycle where possible, or plan ahead and avoid busy times and routes on public transport.

Self-isolation enforcement and support

From 28 September, people who ae legally required to self-isolate will be fined if they breach the regulations. The penalty will start at £1,000 for a first offence but could increase to up to £10,000 for repeat offenders. These fines will also apply to employers who refuse to allow staff the time off work to self-isolate.

People on low incomes who are required to self-isolate may be entitled to a support payment of £500 if they are unable to work from home and have lost wages while self-isolating.

Coronavirus - Changes to lockdown (as of 00.01 18 September 2020)

Additional restrictions from 18 September 2020

From Friday 18 September 2020, Newcastle along with Durham, Gateshead, North Tyneside, Northumberland, South Tyneside and Sunderland became an area of national intervention.  This means that the following additional restrictions are in place in these areas:

 Regulations will ban the following:

• Residents must not socialise with other people outside of their own households or support bubble in private homes and gardens
• Hospitality for food and drink will be restricted to table service only
• Late night restriction of operating hours will be introduced, with leisure and entertainment venues required to close between 10pm to 5am.

Residents are also advised to adhere to the following guidance to further reduce rates of infection:

• Residents should not socialise with other people outside of their own households in all public venues.
• Residents are advised to only use public transport for essential purposes, such as travelling to school or work
• Holidays should be taken within your own household or support bubble
• Residents are advised against attending amateur and semi-professional sporting events as spectators.

These changes are in addition to the nationwide six person limit on social gatherings that came into force on Monday 14  September 2020.  The 'rule of six' remains in place across the country and sits alongside these additional restrictions in the local area.  Measures to protect people who are shielding are being developed for implementation in the affected areas.  

Once legislation is in place the police or the local authority will be able to take action against those who break these rules, including asking people to disperse and issuing fixed penalty notices starting at £100 for those who participate in illegal gatherings.  People aged 18 or over will be able to be fined:

• £100 for the first offence, lowered to £50 if paid within 14 days
• £200 for the second offence, then doubling for each further offence up to a maximum of £3,200

You can find answers to the most frequently asked questions here

Other restrictions 

Below is information on restrictions that are in place across England, and where relevant, in the devolved nations.  These restrictions should be read in conjunction with the additional restrictions outlined above that were implemented in Newcastle from 18 September 2020.

On 9 September, following a rise in cases the government announced a number of new measures would come into place on Monday 14 September.  They also stressed that this was not the time for complacency and that it is critical that everyone observes the following key behaviours:

Hands: Wash your hands regularly for 20 seconds with soap and water or use hand sanitiser if you are out and about.

Face: Wear a face covering in all indoor settings where you come into contact with people you do not normally meet unless you are exempt.  You can find more information on face coverings including exemptions here. 

Space: Stay at least 2 metres apart from people you do not live with where possible.  If this isn't possible then stay at least 1 metre apart and take other precautions such as wearing a face covering or meeting outdoors.

Changes from 14 September 2020

Rule of Six: You must not meet with people from other households socially in groups of more than 6 people.  This applies indoors and outdoors, including in your own home.  The police will have the power to enforce these limits including issuing fines of £100 for a first offence, which can double to a maximum of £3,200 for further breaches.  There are a limited number of exceptions to the rule of six including:

• Where more than six people live together or are in the same support bubble;
• To continue existing arrangements for children who do not live in the same parent as both their parents;
• Workplaces including voluntary and charitable services
• For education, training or registered childcare
• To fulfil legal obligations such as attending jury service
• To provide emergency assistance or support to a vulnerable person
• To avoid illness, injury or harm
• To participate in children's playgroups
• Wedding and civil partnership ceremonies and receptions, other religious life-cycle ceremonies and funerals - a maximum of 30 people will be able to attend
• Organised sports, physical activities and exercise classes
• Youth groups or activities
• Protests and political activities organised in compliance with Covid-19 secure guidance and subject to strict risk assessment

You can find out more about the rule of six including information on exceptions to the rule here. 

NHS Test and Trace: It will become mandatory for certain businesses to have a system to collect NHS Test and Trace data and to keep this for 21 days.  This will be enforceable by law.  Business who must collect this data include bars, restaurants, hairdressers, local authorities, libraries and places of worship.  You can find more information on which businesses should collect data and how to store it safely here.

Border enforcement: The government plans to simplify the Passenger Locator Form and increase enforcement to ensure those returning from abroad are quarantining if required to.

Planned pilots: Pilots planned for sports events will be limited to small numbers with strict conditions in place.  Plans for audiences to be able to return to conferences and other events from 1 October are being reviewed.

Restricted opening hours: The government will restrict the opening hours of certain businesses in lockdown areas with an option for this to be extended national in the future if necessary.  These restrictions are not currently in place in Newcastle.

Rules in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland may be different so please check before travelling to the devolved nations. 

Please be aware that there are local lockdowns in place in some areas of the UK.  You should check whether this applies to the area you are planning to visit before travelling.  More information on where local restrictions are in place can be found here.

Extract from the press release on "www.gov.uk" w/ebsite from the Department of Education (updated 20/04/2020)

Disadvantaged children across England are set to receive laptops and tablets as part of a push to make remote education accessible for pupils staying at home during the coronavirus outbreak.

Devices will be ordered for children in the most vital stages of their education, those who receive support from a social worker and care leavers.

The government will also provide 4G routers to make sure disadvantaged secondary school pupils and care leavers can access the internet – where those families do not already have mobile or broadband internet in the household.

The country’s major telecommunications providers will make it easier for families to access selected educational resources by temporarily exempting these sites from data charges.

Thomas Walling Newsletter and Statement (updated 28/03/2020)/

Thomas Walling Newsletter 27March2020.docx

"This week has been turbulent for all the Academies each facing their own challenges and pushing through these no matter the obstacles presented with. All pupils should be commended for the effort they have taken this week to log in and complete the work provided on-line.

Staff within the Trust have been using Google Classroom to upload work, take classes and set tasks. Attendance of pupils at the Academies is being monitored closely along with those pupils who have not been attending also. This has been a large job for staff especially the welfare teams to check and manage all of our vulnerable children.

Moving forward the Trustboard are in discussions in regards to a fantastic new virtual learning environment which they hope to be launched after Easter.

The next stage of the strategy is to develop a way pupils can complete written work which can then be submitted and marked by the teacher.

Staff have also been given the opportunity to volunteer for the NHS with line manager approval.
