I have been contacted by the Nevis Range Centre in Fort William who tell me that they have had to turn away around 30 camper vans, which had travelled from various parts of the UK, who were intending to use their car park as a refuge.
I urge everyone to do the right thing; follow the Government advice and please do not travel here. If these warnings are not heeded and people need to be stopped from travelling, then I am afraid that is what will have to happen. Those in camper vans please go home!
I cannot stress enough that this pattern of behaviour is irresponsible, counterproductive and must stop with immediate effect. Local services here are, and will continue to, face unprecedented pressure levels as we all battle this global pandemic.
