England’s Second Lockdown Kicks Off November 5
England is back under lockdown from Thursday, 5th November until Wednesday, 2nd December 2020. Brace yourselves – life is about to change again.
What’s Shutting Down?
- All non-essential shops and retail must close their doors.
- Hairdressers and gyms are out of action.
- Pubs and leisure facilities will be off-limits.
- Clothes shops will close up shop.
Rules for the Rest of Us
You’re urged to stay home and only venture out for essentials. These include:
- Education – schools remain open.
- Food shopping – stock up smartly.
- Work – but only if working from home isn’t an option.
Online shopping is still fair game, so you can keep ordering from your sofa.
Help for Hard-Up Workers
The government’s furlough scheme won’t vanish – it’s extended through December to help those hit hardest by the shutdown.
Stay tuned for updates, and remember: Stay home. Stay safe.
