Stay safe while shopping locally by following these guidelines:
Wear a face covering
It is mandatory to wear a face covering when entering all shops, takeaways and supermarkets. The wearing of masks is also encouraged in enclosed public spaces, spaces where it is more difficult to observe social distancing, or where people are more likely to come into contact with others they would not normally meet.
Observe the 2-metre rule when queuing inside or outside
To aid social distancing, some shops are allowing a maximum number of people in their shop at any time
Wash your hands
Wash your hands regularly or use hand sanitiser
Only touch goods if you intend to purchase them
Use contactless or card payment when possible
