As the British Government outlined its strategy to ease the lockdown, British households will be able to reunite with family and friends after 7 weeks.
The government will permit meet up in parks, sunbathe and have chats as long as a two-meter distance is observed.
Friends, family members and couples who have been separated for almost eight weeks will be able to meet up in parks under England’s new lockdown rules.
The easing of restrictions, which will come into force on Wednesday, initially sparked some confusion as Boris Johnson indicated in his national address on Sunday evening that sunbathing could still only be done with members of the same household.
He said: “You can sit in the sun in your local park, you can drive to other destinations, you can even play sports, but only with members of your own household.”
But a Government official later confirmed that as long as they stay two metres apart, people will be allowed to relax and chat with another person from another household.
