To confirm today’s announcements

1.Sports

Unfortunately we cannot proceed with pilots with 1000 fans & the wider 1st Oct reopening with socially distanced fans

I understand the seriousness of the impact of this & am working with sports &govt colleagues on how we support them
2. Business Events

Likewise business events are not permitted to reopen in a covid secure way with social distancing from 1st Oct as was our ambition

This is an important sector & a large employer & I recognise the importance of getting this sector back on its feet quickly
3. 10pm closing time

This will apply across a range of hospitality and leisure sectors including casinos

It will not apply to theatres and cinemas where performances may run over the 10pm deadline

Coronavirus and social distancing has forced all of us to look loneliness in the eye. Tackling it has never been more important. So we’re launching a new plan to help ensure no one needs to feel lonely in the weeks ahead:

gov.uk/government/new… Image
All of us can experience loneliness.

Our #LetsTalkLoneliness campaign is designed to get everyone talking openly about the issue and the role we all have to play in being kind and looking out for each other.

letstalkloneliness.co.uk
Everyone should know what they can do if they’re feeling lonely.

We’ve produced a one stop shop guide on how people can help themselves and where to turn for more support.
