Christmas Message – Tier 4 Guidance

Tier 4: Stay at home

If you live or work in a tier 4 area:

you cannot meet other people indoors including over the Christmas period, unless you live with them, or they are part of your existing support bubble
when outdoors, you can exercise or meet in a public outdoor place with people you live with, your support bubble (or as part of a childcare bubble), or with one other person
you must not leave or be outside of your home except for work, education or other legally permitted reasons.

These rules will not be relaxed for Christmas.

TESTING IF YOU HAVE SYMPTOMS

If you have coronavirus symptoms: (a high temperature, a new, continuous cough, a loss of, or change to, your sense of smell or taste), even if they’re only mild, it’s important to get a test and stay at home until you get your result.
