Update from Swansea Council regarding Coronavirus

The following message is being published across all Council platforms this evening and we have been encouraged to share it with staff, parents and carers:

We want to reassure residents that, in collaboration with our partners, all necessary steps will be taken to ensure the wellbeing of our communities.

 At the moment council services remain open. Following the government announcement today we will be assessing the position and making further detailed announcements tomorrow.

 Government guidance is that schools should remain open for the time being. The message to parents is that, as in other areas of Wales, schools will open tomorrow as normal and the position will be kept under continuous review.

 Residents and parents are urged to follow the Government’s revised social distancing guidelines and anyone who is experiencing symptoms should continue to follow Public Health Wales advice which can be found here: https://phw.nhs.wales/topics/latest-information-on-novel-coronavirus-covid-19/

 

 Rydym am sicrhau trigolion y bydd yr holl gamau angenrheidiol, mewn cydweithrediad â’n partneriaid, yn cael eu cymryd i sicrhau lles ein cymunedau. 

 Ar hyn o bryd mae gwasanaethau’r Cyngor yn parhau ar agor. Yn dilyn cyhoeddiad y Llywodraeth heddiw byddwn yn asesu’r sefyllfa ac yn gwneud cyhoeddiadau manwl pellach yfory. 

 Mae canllawiau’r Llywodraeth yn nodi y dylai ysgolion aros ar agor am y tro. Y neges i rieni yw y bydd ysgolion, fel mewn rhannau eraill o Gymru, yn agor yfory fel arfer a bydd y sefyllfa’n cael ei hadolygu’n barhaus. 

 Anogir trigolion a rhieni i ddilyn canllawiau ymbellhau cymdeithasol diwygiedig y Llywodraeth a dylai unrhyw un sy’n profi symptomau barhau i ddilyn cyngor iechyd cyhoeddus Cymru sydd i’w weld yma: https://phw.nhs.wales/topics/latest-information-on-novel-coronavirus-covid-19/.
