Allow shisha cafes to serve shisha from April 12th 2021.

We would like the Government to consider the regulations around reopening shisha cafes with their full service offer from April 12th 2021 (outside smoking). With the right hygiene practices such as the use of disposable shisha pipes and strict cleaning procedures shisha can still be COVID-safe.

Shisha cafes are a culturally important hubs for communities to come together and enjoy time together.

The Government is currently writing off the shisha cafe industry and is failing to implement strategic plans for opening businesses with an emphasis on safety during the pandemic.

We believe that with the right precautions, shisha cafes can open and serve shisha without risking Covid-19 infection more than any other venue.

The Government should determine these precautions and save shisha cafes.
