- Shop for basic necessities, for you or a vulnerable person
- Go to work, or provide voluntary or charitable services, if you cannot reasonably do so from home
- Exercise with your household (or support bubble) or one other person, this should be limited to once per day, and you should not travel outside your local area.
- Meet your support bubble or childcare bubble where necessary, but only if you are legally permitted to form one
- Seek medical assistance or avoid injury, illness or risk of harm (including domestic abuse)
- Attend education or childcare – for those eligible
Other measures include:
- Restaurants can continue to offer delivery for food
- Clinically extremely vulnerable people must shield
- Sports venues – such as golf courses, tennis courts and gyms – must close
- Amateur team sports are not allowed, but elite sport can continue
