Archbishops update their advice

The Archbishops have so far written twice to all clergy in parishes across the Church of England.

The first letter on Tuesday 17 March explained that public worship would have to "stop for a season". 

A follow-up letter on Thursday 19 March sought to clarify who was able to gather in church for prayer.
