Guidance is clear and no overnight stays are allowed and you must stay in your primary residence unless there is a very good reason and exemption in the restrictions. ( this also applied when we were in tier 4)
Scammers are trying to take advantage of peoples worries and uncertainty about the covid pandemic, especially those who are alone, self-isolating or in financial difficulty.
Please be on the look out for a a black Mondeo estate car that has been seen at the farm yard of Eastleach Downs Organic Farm this morning at 7am. Reported that two young lads were in the vehicle.
