Under Tier 2 rules, residents cannot mix indoors with anyone not in their own household, can only socialise outdoors with 5 other people and are asked to work from home if possible and reduce their use of public transport. Nationwide Tier 1 restrictions also apply - you can only meet other people in groups of 6 or less and there is a 10pm curfew on hospitality venues.
Please keep supporting local businesses, including shops, services, hospitality outlets, the markets and farm shops/stalls.
Wirral is under Tier 3 restrictions, which is the same as Tier 2 and Tier 1 plus no households are allowed to mix either indoors or outdoors; all pubs and bars are closed unless they can operate as a restaurant, and people are advised to avoid travelling into or out of Tier 3 areas.
Wales is to come under a strict 'firebreak' lockdown as of 6pm on Friday 23rd October, which is expected to last until Monday 9th November. You may not travel into Wales except in certain circumstances. More information can be found on the Gov.Wales website here.
