Covid-19

COVID-19 : local rules, information and infection metrics

From Monday 29 March, Lockdown restrictions are being eased slightly which means:

• outdoor gatherings (including in private gardens) of either 6 people (the Rule of 6) or 2 households are also allowed, making it easier for friends and families to meet outside
• outdoor sports facilities such as tennis and golf are allowed to reopen, and people are able to take part in formally organised outdoor sports
• the ‘stay at home’ rule ends but many restrictions remain in place; people should continue to work from home where they can and minimise the number of journeys they make where possible, avoiding travel at the busiest times and routes
• travel abroad continues to be prohibited, other than for a small number of permitted reasons; holidays abroad are not allowed, given it remains important to manage the risk of imported variants and protect the vaccination programme.
  
  

From Monday 12 April, we will move into Step 2 of Lockdown Exit which will mean:

• opening of non-essential retail
• opening of personal care premises such as hairdressers and nail salons
• opening of public buildings, including some libraries and community centres
• indoor leisure facilities such as gyms will also reopen (but only for use by people on their own or in household groups); as will most outdoor attractions and settings including outdoor hospitality venues, zoos, and theme parks
• self-contained accommodation such as campsites and holiday lets, where indoor facilities are not shared with other households, can also reopen
• hospitality venues will be allowed to serve people outdoors and there will be no need for customers to order a substantial meal with alcoholic drinks and no curfew, although customers must order, eat and drink while seated (‘table service’) - wider social contact rules will apply in all these settings to prevent indoor mixing between different households.

Covid-19 information from Cheshire West & Chester

Check if you are eligible for COVID-19 vaccine:

Residents who are eligible for the COVID-19 vaccine in Cheshire West and Chester are encouraged to book their appointment.  Everyone aged 50 and over in England can now book their coronavirus vaccination, following a recent announcement.

As the COVID-19 vaccination programme progresses in the borough, people from a number of priority groups are invited to come forward.  The groups currently being offered the COVID-19 vaccination in the borough include:

• people aged 50 and over
• people who are a main carer for someone at high risk
• frontline health and social care workers
• people who are clinically extremely vulnerable
• people with a learning disability
• people who have a condition that puts them at higher risk (clinically vulnerable)
  

Residents who are eligible can book an appointment at www.nhs.uk/conditions/coronavirus-covid-19/coronavirus-vaccination where they can choose a time slot and location that suits them. People who are eligible, but without online access, can call 119 to book a vaccination between 7am and 11pm, seven days a week. Vaccination appointments can also be booked on behalf of people they care for if they are unable to do it themselves.
