NHS Track And Trace Information
As from today we are required by law to obtain contact details of all persons attending our games at The Brian Addison Stadium . The NHS COVID-19 app which launches today is the best method of doing this, simply download the app onto your phone and scan the barcodes at the ground entrances. This app will be required at pubs, restaurants etc so will have multiple uses.
The NHS COVID-19 app has a feature that allows users to quickly and easily ‘check in’ to our venue by scanning the code. The information stays on the user’s phone. In England, we do not have to ask people who choose to ‘check in’ using the official NHS QR code to provide their contact details. If there is an outbreak associated with a venue, a message will be sent to the relevant app users with the necessary public health advice.
This will help to avoid the reintroduction of lockdown measures and support the country to return to, and maintain, a more normal way of life. We would ask all supporters to have the app to make life easier for all of us but if you don’t have a phone you can still come to the games.
