I have today received a letter from the Prime Minister after yesterday's Press Conference, where he confirmed that the UK will be moving to Step Two of the Roadmap on the 12th April. You can read the letter below.
As stated in the letter, this is how the rules are going to change from April 12th:
- The return of:
-
Outdoor hospitality venues, including beer gardens, with table service only for premises that serve alcohol.
-
Non-essential retail.
-
Personal care premises such as hairdressers and nail salons.
-
Public buildings such as libraries and community centres.
-
Most outdoor attractions including zoos, theme parks, and drive-in performances (such as cinemas and concerts).
-
Indoor leisure and sports facilities for individual exercise, or exercise with your household or support bubble.
-
Smaller outdoor events such as fetes, literary fairs, and fairgrounds.
-
Self-contained accommodation for overnight stays in England with your household and/or support bubble.
-
All childcare and supervised activities, indoors (as well as outdoors) for all children. Parent and child groups can take place indoors (as well as outdoors) for up to 15 people (children under 5 will not be counted in this number).
- The capacity of Weddings, civil partnership ceremonies, and wakes and other commemorative events will increase to 15 people, including in indoor public venues that are permitted to open (either in full, or where an exemption enables them to do so for these events). Wedding receptions can also take place for up to 15 people, but must take place outdoors, not including private gardens.
- The number of visitors allowed for care home residents will increase from one to two – to allow residents to see more of their loved ones.
