The current national lockdown ends on 2 December. Cases are still high in our area and we must continue to follow national guidance.

From 3 December, our area is categorised as Tier 2: High Alert. This will mean some changes in the regulations we must follow. Please read these carefully on the GOV.UK website:

Some areas nearby are in Tier 3: Very High Alert, and this means that people and businesses in these areas have to follow stricter rules. If you normally travel into or through Bristol, North Somerset or South Gloucestershire, please check the guidance for Tier 3.
