Updated Lockdown Guidelines
April 12, 2021
From today, there has been a further easing of lockdown restrictions as we enter step two of the Prime Minister’s roadmap meaning:
- Non-essential retail will reopen.
- Hairdressers and barbers can reopen.
- Gyms and indoor swimming pools can reopen.
- Pubs, restaurants, bars and cafes can reopen serving customers outside. Venues can also offer takeaway alcoholic drinks again.
- Libraries, museums and zoos can reopen.
- Self-contained accommodation can reopen, but only for guests from the same household.
Household mixing indoors is still not allowed.

The next easing of lockdown measures will be Step 3 of the Road Map, which will be from no earlier than May 17 when household mixing indoors will be allowed and hospitality businesses can serve indoors.
