Am I allowed to leave my home?
You must stay at home and only leave for a specific purpose or if you have a “reasonable excuse”.
This includes going to work if it cannot be done from home, shopping for essentials such as food and medicine, attending education or training, using registered childcare, outdoor exercise and for medical reasons.
Did any areas move down a tier?
No areas across England will be moving down a tier. Instead, locations will either remain in the same tier, or will be placed in a higher tier.
No area will be in Tier 2, and only the 2,000 people living on the Isles of Scilly will be in Tier 1, also known as the ‘medium’ alert.
