Recovery Hub
England is currently in a national lockdown, which means we must all stay at home as much as possible to protect ourselves and others.
This means all hospitality businesses in the area must stay closed apart from sales by takeaway, drive-through or delivery (excluding alcohol). All personal care businesses, non-essential retail, indoor leisure and entertainment venues must also close.
