Indoor hospitality and hotels allowed to reopen

Monday 17 May

If the relevant criteria are met, the government will look at continuing the lockdown relaxation in May.

This means that most legal restrictions on meeting others outdoors will be lifted - although gatherings of over 30 people will remain illegal. Indoors, the Rule of 6 or 2 households will apply - we will keep under review whether it is safe to increase this.

Indoor hospitality, hotels, cinemas and theatres will be allowed to reopen, and weddings with up to 30 people will be able to take place.

Save Our Skate Park petition organiser, Helen Watson, plus several other members of the community, are running regular Kindness Café and Teddy Bears' Picnic events at Saltworks.
