In response to the COVID-19 (Coronavirus) situation, AFUO will form a taskforce. This taskforce will provide   community organisations with context on the information that is being provided by experts at the Department of Health.

The Taskforce will also assist in coordinating communal decisions to ensure that actions taken are in accordance with expert advice from Department of Health and do not create unnecessary panic within the community.

  • Provide information on medical and financial issues

What are we encouraging our member organisations and the broader community to do: 

  • AFUO is here to assist and provide guidance before taking actions that may not been mandated by Government
  • Engage with the Taskforce to discuss any confirmed cases of COVID-19 at your organisation
  • Provide advice and support for community members in need
  • Consider the effects this pandemic will have on your organisation. If you haven’t already activated your business continuity plan now is the time to do so
