by | 0 comments

The Prime Minister has confirmed step 2 of the roadmap which means that from Monday 12 April additional premises will be able to reopen with the rules on social contact applying. Indoor settings must only be visited alone or with household groups, with outdoor settings limited to either six people or two households. This includes non-essential retail; personal care premises such as hairdressers, beauty and nail salons; and indoor leisure facilities such as gyms. Public buildings such as libraries and community centres will also reopen. The majority of outdoor settings and attractions can also reopen, including outdoor hospitality, zoos, theme parks, drive-in cinemas and drive-in performances events. Hospitality venues will be able to open for outdoor service, with no requirement for a substantial meal to be served alongside alcohol, and no curfew. The requirement to eat and drink while seated will remain. The updated guidance on what you can and cannot do from 12 April can be read here.
