Announcement Regarding Face Coverings
The government is now advising that people should aim to wear a face covering in enclosed spaces where social distancing is not always possible and they come into contact with others that they do not normally meet, for example on public transport or in some shops. Here is some information on how to wear and make a cloth face covering or how to make your own face covering. Maintaining social distancing and practising regular hand hygiene is still paramount.

ITREB Thought of the Day
In the deserts of Arabia, natural oases of palm trees springing up from underground water were a welcome sight to travellers, and the idea of creating a garden may have first come from this part of the world. In cool climates, gardens are common, but in warmer climes, they become much more precious. Some of the most well-known gardens today were built by Muslim Emperors, and enjoyed by sultans, princesses, patrons, and merchants. The traditional Persian chahar-bagh, or four-part design can be found as far apart as Spain and India. Four water channels or paths divide up the garden, with streams running, flowing, and splashing toward a fountain or pool in the centre. The gardens are usually very green, including many varieties of plants and flowers, with areas for shade from the sun. The northernmost Islamic garden in the world is the Aga Khan Garden near Edmonton (pictured).
