Like many organisations worldwide, we are currently affected by a global Microsoft 365 outage, causing intermittent disruption to some of our systems and services, including email (Outlook).

Our IT teams are aware of the issue and are closely monitoring Microsoft's progress as they work to restore normal service. We apologise for any disruption or delayed replies this may cause and appreciate your patience while Microsoft resolves the issue.

Further updates will be provided here as soon as more information becomes available.

Statement from 天涯社区

Published: 19/10/2020

Everyone will have seen that the First Minister has called a 鈥榝ire-break鈥� to help slow down the spread of the Covi-19 virus. The firebreak will last from 6.00 pm on Friday 23 October until Monday 9 November. During this period there will be a new set of temporary restrictions and closures.

Please refer to the special set of Frequently Asked Questions on the Welsh Government website as a guide to what you can and cannot do during this period .听

The Council website is being updated to show which services will remain open during this period, and which will have to close. The link will be on the home page as soon as possible.

We will be keeping all local services open where we are allowed to do so. We were keen to keep our Household Recycling Centres open but we will not be allowed to do so.听 All regular household waste and recycling collection services will continue as normal.听

We are pleased that children鈥檚 outdoor play areas are allowed to remain open. We would urge parents to supervise their children at play areas, to take sanitising equipment with them and to avoid meeting up with others as this would be against the regulations.听

We are also pleased to confirm that our two 天涯社区 Connects centres at Holywell and Flint will remain open throughout this period for residents to access Council and other services.

Primary schools, special schools and childcare will remain open. Secondary schools will be advising parents/carers and students of the arrangements for the different age groups.

We appeal for everyone to cooperate fully and follow the guidelines. By making personal sacrifices we can all play our part in slowing the spread of the virus and protecting lives.听

Do remember that the Police and councils have enforcement powers, and that fines and other penalties can be imposed on individuals and businesses who breach the rules. We would all prefer that enforcement is a last resort.
