The Scottish Craft Butchers office in Perth is now closed following government guidelines.
We will be available to our members to answer any queries via email or by mobile phone and will be available out of office hours for any members wanting to contact us.

Face visors not enough on their own

The First Minister Ms Sturgeon says the latest advice is that face visors are not, on their own, enough to offer protection.

From tomorrow, if a visor is worn it must be accompanied by another type of face covering.
We have no further advice to business on this at present, once we have more detail we will issue.
