Stay Alert: Follow the Rules or Face the Consequences

Everyone must stay vigilant. Wash hands, cover your face, and keep your distance. If you haven’t already, download the NHS Covid-19 App to support Test and Trace efforts. It’s crucial to act now before the winter months hit hard.

“None of us want a repeat of earlier this year when the NHS was pushed to breaking point,”

warns the local council. A second lockdown would be catastrophic for the economy. Though restrictions may be wearing on us all, personal responsibility remains key to protecting our loved ones and community.
