Double Godlike!
One of these days someone is going to come on here saying that attending an interview puts you inside IR35 because you are accepting direction and control from the client.
If it is about attending a meeting, the client can ask you to attend. You show that you are in control by suggesting dates, times and venue. But always remember they are your client and you are supposed to be a professional business so you show flexibility to meet your client's needs

Apologies I havent replied sooner.
So I am now wfh 5 days till the end of lockdown.
Luckily for me, i didnt need to go down the contractual or IR35 route.
The CEO of the trust alongside the Chair of Trustees do a weekly broadcast/webinar to the whole organisation giving them an update on COVID, the Trust etc.
In their webinar, they said, we recommend that anyone who can work remotely, should do so unless they feel it will affect their mental health (We are a mental health trust after all), in which case you are more than welcome to come into the office. Where departments need to have someone onsite, management need to work out a rota to ensure as minimum staff are in as possible.
So with that statement ringing through the trust, the director of IT cant really go against his own bosses. So no he has to work out a rota for IT Support to keep just skeleton staff onsite.
To answer some of the questions, even when in the office, all meeting were held on teams. We dont have big offices or meetings rooms so to have more than 2 in our meetings rooms contravenes social distancing rules.
Most of the work for the project I am doing is being handled by another supplier/consultancy. They are all remote (even from their own offices).
Training is being done remotely over Teams
Comms Officer is working remote
(Both report to other departments)
Its just the service desk and infra engineers who had to be onsite, but that is being changed now as well.
