COVID-19: business continuity contact details

President Cyril Ramaphosa announced a nation-wide lockdown in order to escalate the measures to deal with the spread of the coronavirus. All shops and businesses will be closed for 21 days from midnight on 26 March 2020 except for pharmacies, laboratories, banks, essential financial services, supermarkets, petrol stations and health care providers.

Individuals will not be allowed to leave their homes except under strictly controlled circumstances such as to seek medical care and the buying of food, medicine or other supplies. These measures will have a considerable impact on all of us, including our society and our economy, but it is without doubt necessary to save the lives of thousands of people.

In order to counter the effects that the lockdown will have on our firm, and you, our valued clients, we have implemented a range of measures to ensure critical business continuity as far as possible.  Please contact any of the Directors of the firm directly on should you require urgent assistance:
