If you shielding you can go out with your household or a friend from tomorrow?
I heard it on the early BBC news.
Continue to take care......choose somewhere not too crowded as people seem to be forgetting the social distance already......but enjoy!
There is hope..........
Hi Lacomtekp
Yes, great isn't it ? As long as there aren't too many idiots meeting up and ignoring the 2 metre distancing. In the UK there are different easing variations for Scotland, Ireland and Wales to England.
Bit different for us in Wales we can meet with members of just one household but it has to be outside - 2 metres apart and we can only travel a maximum of 5 miles to meet up.
If you have to go through someones house to meet in their garden use hand sanitiser. Meanwhile for us all public parks and beauty spots remain closed for now. A very much more cautious approach here.
Take care everyone, G n' J
I don't understand how it can be safe when there are still so many new cases each day.
I dont think they should say its safe for us but its up to each person what they want to do if carry on shielding or not.Me still having treatment but going back to work in 2 weeks time I have been off work from May 2019 and I cant cope mentally anymore.for me even to work 2 days in a week makes me really happy.Since last year I dont know anything else only weekly chemo.I have missed my friends and colleagues.
