CORONAVIRUS

(COVID-19)

SITUATION

In view of the current situation we regret that

OUR POSTAL SALES DEPARTMENT IS CURRENTLY CLOSED
PHOTO CIRCUIT DESPATCHES ARE NOW SUSPENDED

This is not only because of the government's directive that people should stay at home except for a number of clearly defined reasons, but also to reduce risk as far as possible to SEC volunteers connected with these activities.

We will review the situation as soon as overall conditions improve, and hope that it will not be too long before life starts returning to normal and we are again able to operate our Postal sales and Photo Circuit departments.
