All public activities at the British Council Bucharest will be suspended during 13-20 November

We would like to inform you that, in accordance with local regulation, all public activities at the British Council Bucharest will be suspended during 13-20 November, given the fact that we have registered three cases of AH1N1 flu among our Teaching Centre students. We have no reason to believe that the flu was caught on British Council premises.

The English courses from 13-20 November will be rescheduled. We will be in touch with information about making up these courses at a later date.

The Library will reopen to the public on 21 November. There will be no fees charged for the materials which should otherwise be returned to the library between 13-20 November.

We would also like to let you know that we have informed the Public Health Directorate about the existence of these three cases of AH1N1 flue and all measures will be taken for the disinfection of the entire British Council premises in Bucharest.

We will continue to keep you up to date with the situation and we will continue to answer to the telephone during the regular hours 09.00 – 17.00.

Also, you can contact us by:

Telephone: 021 3079600
Fax: 021 307 96 01, 021 307 96 02
E-mail: contact@britishcouncil.ro

Thank you for your understanding.
