The Rules are changing from Saturday 4th July

Following the period of lockdown, infection rates of Covid-19 are reducing across the country, and people will have fewer restrictions on what they can do, and more businesses and work-places can be open.

You may:

• meet in groups of up to 2 households in any location – inside or outside, public or private
• meet in groups of up to 6 people from different households - outside only
• stay overnight away from home – in a second home or holiday place, or in someone else’s home – with one other household
• meet different households at different times

You must:

• maintain social distancing when meeting people outside your household or support bubble. This includes if you are staying overnight.

You must not:

• gather in groups of larger than 30 people – this is still against the law except for very limited reasons
• gather inside in groups of more than 2 households – including at restaurants or pubs
• interact socially with anyone outside the group you are attending a place with, even if you see other people you know, for example, in a restaurant, community centre or place of worship
• hold or attend celebrations where it is difficult to maintain social distancing
• stay overnight away from home with members of more than one other household

Businesses & Activities
