Meeting outdoors
You must not meet socially (in a private garden or at most outdoor public venues), with anybody you do not:
- live with
- have a support bubble with
- Unless a legal exemption applies.
However, you can see friends and family you do not live with (or do not have a support bubble with) in some outdoor public places, in a group of up to 6. This limit of 6 includes children of any age.
- These outdoor public places include:
- parks, beaches, countryside accessible to the public, forests
- public gardens (whether or not you pay to enter them)
- allotments
- the grounds of a heritage site
- outdoor sports courts and facilities
- playgrounds
You can continue to meet in a group larger than 6 if you are all from the same household or support bubble, or another legal exemption applies.
