From Monday, 8th March 2021, Step 1 of the governments Road Map Out Of Lockdown begins.
This means, outdoor recreation (not just exercise) with your household/support bubble or one other person is allowed. It’s not a massive change to the current guidelines but it does permit picnics. So why not grab a blanket and get yourself to your favourite park? Our favourite parks are listed here https://northeasteats.home.blog/2021/02/28/north-east-picnic-areas-with-childrens-play-parks-and-take-away-hot-drinks/
