COVID-19: Outset Group update

March 2020

In light of recent media reports, the below is a statement from our CEO Jonathan Gauton on behalf of the Outset Group.

“As you may be aware, an individual who works at Vinters Business Park, where Outset Group’s head office is located, has tested positive for COVID-19. The individual had recently returned from Italy.

We understand Public Health England do not consider the Vinters Park site to pose a risk to public health and are pleased to say that none of our colleagues at the Outset Group are directly affected or likely to have come into close contact with the person who has tested positive - whose office is located on a different floor of the building.

As a result, it’s very much business as usual for us – working closely with our clients to provide them with valuable, practical advice on their business needs, including where they too may face potential issues arising from COVID-19.

We continue to monitor the situation as well as all of the relevant guidance from both the Department of Health and Social Care, Public Health England and the NHS.

If you have any questions, please let us know. In the meantime, take all the appropriate precautions, stay safe and healthy – and don’t panic. Should you need us, we’ll be here for you.”
