I have received the following email from Disability Wales, concerning advice to the extremely vulnerable over the festive period. It is essential reading for all those living in Wales during this pandemic. Hope everyone has a safe and peaceful festive period.

Dear Members,
The advice to those who are clinically extremely vulnerable, previously ‘shielding’ has changed from today to advise those within this group that they should no longer attend work or school outside the home.
Letters from the Chief Medical Officer for Wales (CMO) will be issued confirming this advice but will take some time to reach individuals due to the festive period. Due to this delay please can you communicate this message via any channels you have so it can reach as many people as possible.
The Welsh Government have issued a written statement:
Updated guidance will be published on the following link as soon as possible:
Kind Regards
Disability Wales
