New Government Guidelines
On the 22nd of September the UK Government introduced stricter measures in a bid to control the rising number of Coronavirus cases. Guidelines, which Boris Johnson suggests, could last up to 6-months.
Updated advice on when to wear a face covering.
Retail staff and customers in indoor hospitality venues, shopping centres and visitor attractions will now have to wear face coverings.
Face coverings must be worn by taxi drivers and passengers in all private hire vehicles as well as on all public transport and at all transport hubs.
Libraries, places of worship, community centres, hotels and auction houses are also among the indoor settings where face coverings are now compulsory.
