This is not a practice and there’s no playbook so it’s not a time to panic. We are in a great industry sector in lawn mowing and many families outside our industry sector are already struggling at the moment. With everyone’s co-operation, we will all get through this.</p><p class="">From 11.59 pm Wednesday, all non-essential services will shut. Your civic duty is to self-isolate and stay at home. You can, of course, buy groceries and the supply in this country is excellent. Please abide fully with the law.&nbsp;</p><p class="">We mow for many elderly and people that could be put into harm’s way by people flouting the laws. Prepare your family and keep them close. We will be active on WhatsApp as a group and Facebook as a group. Also, you can call us anytime. We also use Zoom for face-to-face conference calling.&nbsp;</p><p class="">Your health and well-being is our utmost priority. Please stay at home from Wednesday. Use Tuesday to get organised. We recommend that you put in for the wage supplement ASAP and we have provided links below.</p><p class="">Once shut down commences we all have a lot of time to communicate. These last two weeks have been challenging. Going forward with your co-operation, we will all make it through to the other side.&nbsp;</p><p class="">Thank you,</p><p class="">David Serville&nbsp;<br>CEO Crewcut Franchise Group Ltd</p>
