Update: meeting up indoors and outdoors

Date Added: 08/09/2020

We sent this email last week regarding the number of people that can meet up. We've updated the image to highlight that groups of more than six people can meet indoors - provided that they are exclusively from two households.

As lockdown restrictions are eased it can be hard to keep up to date with the rules about how many people you can meet up. There are still restrictions around how many people you can meet with because the virus is still present in the community, although not at the rate that we saw earlier in the year thankfully. Keeping our socialising small helps to control the spread of the virus.

Hopefully, we’ve all taken the opportunity during the summer to get out more and meet up with friends and family that we’ve not seen in a while. As the weather is turning more autumnal, we’re all likely to be wanting to meet up with friends and family indoors. There are different rules for meeting indoors and outdoors and hopefully our graphic below will help you to know how to keep safe when meeting friends.

For more information visit the GOV.UK website. Please share this with friends and family. The more we stick to this, the better it will be for everyone in the long term.
