"Club play have said Vax pass or temp check." I’d have thought it would have been temp check for everyone surely? There are many who won’t have the vax pass but even those that do have it can still contract and have covid. | |||

"Club play have said Vax pass or temp check." are with so many with vaccines testing positive I think I would prefer that covid pass as opposed to just vaccine check.. ie a recent negative test | |||

"why bother with temperature check? I've had covid. I had many symptoms but a high temperature wasn't one of them. Nor is it for most people with delta variant either It's called hygiene theatre. " Same. I had neither a temp nor a cough when I had Covid..... | |||

"Well we're insisting on both vaccine jabs with proof either via NHS Pass app or vaccine card plus all guests have to take a lft on the day and bring it with them as proof of a negative test and we will also be temperature checking on the door. Anyone who says they can't have had the jabs for medical reasons will have to supply proof of that by a doctors letter before we consider their booking and of course they'll have to have a lft on the day again with temperature check on the door. We're not offering invites to anti vaccers at all, it's partly thanks to their ignorance and stupidity that we've all been closed down for so long! Yes we're going to lose a few bookings along the way but from the bookings we're getting so far the overwhelming response to these rules has been completely positive. The safety of our guests, our staff and ourselves is of paramount importance. Chris & Teresa, 'Secrets!'" Really great to hear you're not afraid to stand your ground. Best of luck going forward  | |||

I have only just realised you could get these lft test for free so I ordered a pack you get 7 BUT says they ending the free in August so my question is do you expect people to have to pay for tests ? Or will the proof of vaccine be enough? | |||

"Personally it should be all clubs say proof of double jab or no entry. We wont be going to clubs for some time to come .k " Many at the younger end of the age spectrum won't be double jabbed till September or October through no fault of their own. Also some people (very few) genuinely cannot have the vaccine. A recent negative test should also be accepted. | |||

" Was happy when you were just allowing entry with pass or lft, but, am I reading correctly now that if someone isn’t willing to produce either you will accept just a temp check? Not being funny just want to double check. Thanks | |||

This is the sort of club I would be happy to attend just on the grounds of the rules they have in place to protect people. | |||

What’s the shock in a business taking responsibility for the well being of staff and guests? Wouldn’t you prefer to go to a club that does take the situation seriously? As for the comment about anti vaxxers - they are going to be a problem for many industries as they are a liability. Why should a business and their guests accept that liability because of an individual’s choice? You are free to choose the vaccine or not. And the rest of us are free to choose to avoid risking our health by being in contact with you. | |||

The safety of our guests, our staff and ourselves is of paramount importance. Chris & Teresa, 'Secrets!' This is a shocking message and very rude Not mention that asking for proof of a disability is also quite illegal. " Being genuinely unable to have a vaccine is not a disability. For example, having a risk of anaphylaxis to the vaccine ingredients is one of the main (and very rare) reasons, but unless the allergy caused the person "substantial and long term difficulty in carrying out every day tasks", then it's not a disability. The definition of a disability under the Equality Act 2010 is a condition causing "substantial and long term difficulty in carrying out day to day tasks". Long term is defined as lasting more than one year. Substantial is highly subjective and open to interpretation. Anyone diagnosed with cancer or certain types of mental health or psychiatric condition are automatically defined as disabled without the one year bit. However, even if someone met the definition of disabled, it may not be their disability that stops them having the vaccine. The number of people genuinely medically unable to be vaccinated and who have been told by medical professionals not to have it is exceptionally small. Some people have made a decision not to have it because that's how they've weighed things up, but they've not actually been instructed by a doctor to abstain. | |||

"Well we're insisting on both vaccine jabs with proof either via NHS Pass app or vaccine card plus all guests have to take a lft on the day and bring it with them as proof of a negative test and we will also be temperature checking on the door. Anyone who says they can't have had the jabs for medical reasons will have to supply proof of that by a doctors letter before we consider their booking and of course they'll have to have a lft on the day again with temperature check on the door. We're not offering invites to anti vaccers at all, it's partly thanks to their ignorance and stupidity that we've all been closed down for so long! Yes we're going to lose a few bookings along the way but from the bookings we're getting so far the overwhelming response to these rules has been completely positive. The safety of our guests, our staff and ourselves is of paramount importance. Chris & Teresa, 'Secrets!' This is a shocking message and very rude" It's neither shocking or rude. The club are choosing to.protect their staff, members and business. Bravo clubs that take this position. E | |||

"I cannot have the vaccine due to allergies and previous health issues and nobody will advise me otherwise the doctor won’t even talk to me about it. That does not make me stupid " Are you able to take PCR or LFT tests? E | |||

Thinking of everyones well being and safety. We were so hopeful when we seen the announcement by the government asking clubs to use the NHS app and to be cautious. One club we respected a lot started saying straight away they would go down this route but then within 2 days did a U turn and said temp checks only. We thought we would be returning sooner than we anticipated with this news, but most clubs have decided not to be cautious and not do what the government were hoping they would. So unless we find a club nearer who are doing what you are doing at Secrets, it will probably be 2022 before we are able to return. As Cali says people are vulnerable or living with vulnerable people so being cautious is a good mitigation for us in that demographic. They should remember people like us have been supporting clubs for a very long time and to leave us standing on the side lines with no regard leaves a bad taste  | |||

Not all covid cases display temperature with new varient. To be honest covid pass without lft test is probably not enough. Really wish your business well though.x | |||

"why bother with temperature check? I've had covid. I had many symptoms but a high temperature wasn't one of them. Nor is it for most people with delta variant either It's called hygiene theatre. " Why not do temperature test? There's nothing to lose. It's one second with an IR temperature gun, totally non invasive. Maybe temperature only detects 2 in 10 cases. Maybe LFT only detects 3 in 10 cases. Maybe sore throat only detects 1 in 10. Maybe losing sense of smell only detects another 2 in 10. That's 8 out of 10 that you've detected, which is a damn sight better than nothing. Keeping safe in a pandemic is all a numbers game. Wear a mask - you're a bit safer. Get a jab - you're a bit safer. Only go places where they check people's temperature - you're a bit safer. Keep out people that have recently been near someone that's got it - you're a bit safer. No single one of these things will prevent you catching covid. But all of them together, and you've got a damn sight more chance of being safe than someone that does none of them. | |||

I understand perfectly that you are doing the best you can to keep going, and you are stuck between a rock and a hard place. Time and again this government has failed and has made decisions that do not protect people, do not protect businesses, do not protect the economy. My hope, regarding the club scene in particular, is that a consensus quickly develops where venues all opt to take more precautions rather than less. I suspect that every club owner will be keenly observing what happens at their neighbouring clubs, hopefully this will result in cooperation in applying higher standards in covid checking, rather than a race to the bottom. | |||

I get where you are coming from but also look at it another way. Someone attends your club positive and next week you are shut due to an outbreak. "This could happen at any club unless you test everyone single person that enters the building which is unworkable in practice. Even the Covid pass will not stop this but its the best idea I have seen to open clubs with reduced risk but as I say it needs to be compulsory or people will simply not comply and give clubs abuse. Look at the NHS track & trace app, around 20%, thats millions of people have already deleted it and that number grows daily. From tomorrow no one needs to scan the thing to go into a pub and watch thescenes in night clubs & pubs tomorrow and you think a swingers club has any chance of implementing the Covid pass with that going on? I am afraid we have a negligent government who have opened up to soon and have decided on herd immunity and letting those not vaccinated catch it be them young or old to achieve it. The phrase I keep hearing is ' We have to learn to live with it ' Unless the NHS get completely overstretch this is the world we live in. We are looking at 100,000 to 200,000 cases a day in a few weeks only at this point do we think the government will make theses covid passes compulsory or close us again.
Please stop bashing club this is a government policy thats completely unworkable left to the nighttime industry to decide what to do with. The fact is 9 out of 10 all night venues in county will not be using these passes shows how utterly stupid the government policy is. | |||

After 18 months of not being able to attend a club, another 14 days is hardly a major inconvenience. E | |||

The only thing he can do is support the staff that want to wear masks and he is going to try and make sure as much ventilation as possible and cap numbers at 75 percent of capacity ...but it's all pretty meaningless in terms of reducing risks...

I do however use the webpage version of it on my computer for things like checking my records, looking up exactly which doctor saw me for which problem, booking appointments etc. Very useful. And as soon as I have an intention to go anywhere that it might be an advantage to be able to prove my vaxx status, I will certainly load up the app. | |||

"Well we're insisting on both vaccine jabs with proof either via NHS Pass app or vaccine card plus all guests have to take a lft on the day and bring it with them as proof of a negative test and we will also be temperature checking on the door. Anyone who says they can't have had the jabs for medical reasons will have to supply proof of that by a doctors letter before we consider their booking and of course they'll have to have a lft on the day again with temperature check on the door. We're not offering invites to anti vaccers at all, it's partly thanks to their ignorance and stupidity that we've all been closed down for so long! Yes we're going to lose a few bookings along the way but from the bookings we're getting so far the overwhelming response to these rules has been completely positive. The safety of our guests, our staff and ourselves is of paramount importance. Chris & Teresa, 'Secrets!' I will only be attending clubs that are taking similar precautions" Same here | |||

The safety of our guests, our staff and ourselves is of paramount importance. Chris & Teresa, 'Secrets!' I have only just realised you could get these lft test for free so I ordered a pack you get 7 BUT says they ending the free in August so my question is do you expect people to have to pay for tests ? Or will the proof of vaccine be enough? Our rules are crystal clear, why should the fact that you may have to pay for lateral flow tests later make a blind bit of difference. Do the sensible thing and get a few packs in, one pack will give you enough per person for seven parties....Some people!" There is no need to be so rude i was only asking a question and yes the fact they won't be free does make a blind bit of difference as people who are selling them for sometimes triple the prices !! Rules in this world seem to change at a drop of a hat nowadays lol | |||

"Try again but sounding better oppsss Does anyone know if The Attic has any requirements? we are planning to go but waiting on my 2nd jab (then waiting a week or 2 after it).... xx as far as I am aware they aren't requiring anything. Absolutely nothing in place to keep us a little safer we have been told not going to lie.. I was really disappointed. As I was looking forward to popping in x"We were very disappointed too. But hey ho it gives us that push to try the other clubs that have been on our radar who are trying their best to keep us all safe. Really funny folk have critised the government for not keeping people safe, the government then give the tools for folk to it and then take the same route not to keep their clients and staff safe with criticism it not been put into law just advice. Crazy world we live in | |||

Boris will say that it is no longer needed to take this action. It's just a bit of arm twisting to get more people vaccinated. Have you seen today's figures for first vaccinations ? Only something like 19,000. Lets face it all who want to be vaccinated could have had a first jab, or both jabs by now. The Gov. can't / won't force people to be vaccinated so all they can do is try to apply pressure to persuade the "refusniks". | |||

By then all the clubs doing the right thing will have seen their membership increase in our humble opinion. We for one/two are looking to gain new membership at 2 clubs that are requiring vaccines certification from opening this weekend. Respect to them clubs stepping up to the plate to keep us all as safe as they can | |||

"We see chameleons are doing the right thing and not racing to the bottom as a poster says above about a lot of clubs. We've been wanting to go to this club for a while but always ended up at our favourite club in Derby. We have been told our favourite club will have zero checks so won't be going back there. We'll be looking to gain our membership at Chameleons. Seen great reviews from this club and shows how good they must be stepping up to the plate and taking things forward in a respectful safe manner. After all, the restriction to get into clubs, keeping clients and staff safe should only be in the short term. Suppose that's all how things pan out though.
Chams is great, it's my favourite club, I'm going on Friday for the reopening party, I'm super excited.
We have been told time and time again to get there. Now our favourite club, should say X favourite, don't have any safety measures in place we are definitely going to Chams. Hopefully make some new friends
Come on a Friday, that's my night of choice, we can have a chat and a giggle
Thanks Keeley, we would most likely make a weekend of it so both Friday and Saturday. We'll give it a few weeks and let everyone get back and wait till it quiets down a bit, saying that from what we've been told it's always busy with it being a great club and would think now they are doing the right thing more people like us will be looking to go due to them being respectful towards their clientele with safety restrictions. We'll be looking out for for
See you in a few weeks then! "Keeley, drop us a private message and we'll forward our face pics to you. We are going to contact Chams and sort out a visit with our NHS app at hand. It might not be till beginning of Sept as we have a visit to Isle of Man sorted in August, may we add only people double vaccinated can cross Isle of Man border too, so our vaccination certificate is getting well used | |||

" They aren't asking for your medical records, just your Covid status, which is easy to provide. Mountains and molehills. A lot of clubs will go out of business a lot quicker if they don't apply Covid protocols and someone infects everyone in the club. There's two choices, two paths, two outcomes.

As LFT will no longer be free after August we were thinking The government were introducing vaccine certificates so there is no extra expense to attend.

"Seems they are all very different would be nice to get them all in one place. So which clubs will be requiring testing and or covid passports..which just temperature checks etc or anything else. Thanks " We went to Abfabs and this is the requirement from their website (it’s in their blog section) We will be implementing the covid jab check. We feel this is socially responsible to minimise the risk to all. So could you all ensure you have the NHS app to prove your status or Exemption, or a PCR test with results within 24 hours of your attendance. We will grant you enter for the next 8 weeks if you have had a single vaccine. This will give people time to get fully vaccinated. After this time we have a feeling it will be compulsory to be fully vaccinated before entering any hospitality venue. | |||

"Well we're insisting on both vaccine jabs with proof either via NHS Pass app or vaccine card plus all guests have to take a lft on the day and bring it with them as proof of a negative test and we will also be temperature checking on the door. Anyone who says they can't have had the jabs for medical reasons will have to supply proof of that by a doctors letter before we consider their booking and of course they'll have to have a lft on the day again with temperature check on the door. We're not offering invites to anti vaccers at all, it's partly thanks to their ignorance and stupidity that we've all been closed down for so long! Yes we're going to lose a few bookings along the way but from the bookings we're getting so far the overwhelming response to these rules has been completely positive. The safety of our guests, our staff and ourselves is of paramount importance. Chris & Teresa, 'Secrets!' I have only just realised you could get these lft test for free so I ordered a pack you get 7 BUT says they ending the free in August so my question is do you expect people to have to pay for tests ? Or will the proof of vaccine be enough? Our rules are crystal clear, why should the fact that you may have to pay for lateral flow tests later make a blind bit of difference. Do the sensible thing and get a few packs in, one pack will give you enough per person for seven parties....Some people!" You are a really rude person. | |||

The safety of our guests, our staff and ourselves is of paramount importance. Chris & Teresa, 'Secrets!' If only all clubs were taking your stance, keeping customers and staff safe. Thinking of everyones well being and safety. We were so hopeful when we seen the announcement by the government asking clubs to use the NHS app and to be cautious. One club we respected a lot started saying straight away they would go down this route but then within 2 days did a U turn and said temp checks only. We thought we would be returning sooner than we anticipated with this news, but most clubs have decided not to be cautious and not do what the government were hoping they would. So unless we find a club nearer who are doing what you are doing at Secrets, it will probably be 2022 before we are able to return. As Cali says people are vulnerable or living with vulnerable people so being cautious is a good mitigation for us in that demographic. They should remember people like us have been supporting clubs for a very long time and to leave us standing on the side lines with no regard leaves a bad taste
Although we respect your opinion unless all clubs implement the Covid-19 pass as one or it a legal requirement which we hope it is soon, this approach is not viable as a business and excataly why government passed the buck with no funding onto the nighttime industry.
Most clubs have been shut with no income and very little government funding for 18 months now and I think people should remember that before making thenm scape goats for a bad government policy that us unworkable. Those businesses like ours need money to pay bills and to stay open and on a personal level to pay our bills including mortgage & food!
The sad fact is we had nearly 50% of customer threatened to cancel over Covid-19 passes & go elsewhere and why we had to find a compromise to open or close our doors for good and give this up for a bad joke & move on. This is why we say unless all clubs implement it or it become law the covid pass is unworkable as people sorry to say overwhelming dont want or to use it outside of these forums." | |||
