So, there's been another outbreak of Foot and Mouth disease, this time near Egham. Fortunately, our venue, Brooklands, is just outside the current 3 km protection zone. Egham is actually about 10 km away but it seems that, as a precaution, the zone has been extended eastwards to cover the area between Egham and Woking.

There's no need to panic. Brooklands is a very urban area, there are no farms or livestock nearby so I don't imaging there will be any disruption to transport or access.

Obviously, if you live on a farm or are coming from a rural area then you may want to take this into consideration and take appropriate precautions.

The official DEFRA site which provides maps and details of the current status is here.
