Government and NHS update
The latest guidance states that everyone must stay at home as much as possible to help control the virus.
This includes people of all ages – even if you do not have any symptoms or other health conditions.
This means everyone must:
- stay at home as much as possible
- work from home if you can
- limit contact with other people
- keep your distance if you go out (2 metres apart where possible)
- wash your hands regularly
Do not leave home if you or anyone in your household has symptoms.
You should also wash your hands as soon as you get home.
Visit the GOV.UK website here to read more about what you can and cannot do.
