Extract from Selkirk Common Riding Trust Statement
Following full and careful consideration of the restrictions in relation to the on-going COVID-19 pandemic, Selkirk Common Riding Trustees have decided there is no alternative available but to cancel Selkirk's 2021 Common Riding, which was scheduled to be held on Friday 18th June.
The Trustees received guidance and advice on Friday 22nd January from the Chairman of the Scottish Borders Multi Agency Safety Advisory Group (SAG) explaining that the Scottish Government's strategic framework setting out the five-level protections will continue throughout the remainder of 2021.
