    70cm Club Net. & TIER 2 Rules from Today.


    Wed 2nd Dec 2020

    SUMMARY OF TIER  TWO RULES  

     indoor setting, whether at home or in a public place (a support bubble is where a single adult living alone, or a single parent with children under 18, can form an exclusive network with one other household where social distancing does not have to be observed),  2 households that form a support bubble count as one household for the purposes of this guidance.

    People are also not permitted to socialise in a group of more than six people outside, including in a garden or a public space.

    Bars and Pubs that don't serve substantial meals will have to close.

    Pub-goers living in a Tier 2  zone can't just pop into their local for a pint.

    From Wednesday, December 2, pubs and bars can only serve alcohol with substantial meals. whether indoors or outside

    Plus, in Tier 2

    • Pubs and bars operating as restaurants must provide table service only, indoors or outdoors
    • They must remain closed between 11pm and 5am
    • However hospitality venues in airports, ports, transport services and motorway service areas are exempt from this closure rule
    • Tier 2 pubs and bars must stop taking orders after 10pm
    • Hospitality businesses and venues selling food and drink for consumption off the premises can continue to do so after 10pm
    • But, this must be organised through delivery service, click-and-collect or drive-through

    The government says that all businesses and venues which reopen are expected to follow Covid-19 secure guidelines to protect customers, visitors and workers.

    Across all tiers, everyone must wear a face covering in most indoor public settings, unless they have an exemption.
