I would have thought trying to run a VGS with COVID restrictions is a minefield.....
Youth groups / education has been deemed necessary.

However, that doesn't begin to cover actually getting kids to flying locations. Air Cadet volunteers have been pretty much banned from transporting anybody except themselves, so unless parents are willing to cart kids a few hours, drop them off, not be allowed on the station themselves, wait a few hours for no flying to take place because it looks a bit windy, then drive back again... This amounts to nothing but a PR exercise.
