Face coverings for public commute
All citizens living in England are now required to wear a face mask while commuting on public transport or one metre plus in areas where two metre social distancing is deemed impossible. The rule came into effect on the 15th of June 2020. The latest advice from the NHS places emphasis on the importance of face coverings and the adherence to safe social distancing.
Other daily activities
Those who seek to participate in daily activities such as exercising and running essential shopping errands are encouraged to keep a safe distance. The public at large are advised to wear their face coverings at all times. Please remember to always wash and sanitize your hands regularly.
NHS Foundation Trust provides tips on how to wear your mask correctly
Always ensure your hands are clean. Wash or sanitise your hands before putting it on.
Ensure the mask goes up to the bridge of your nose and all the way down your chin.
Tighten the loops or ties so it’s snug around your face
Avoid touching your face, or the parts of the mask that cover your nose or mouth.
Wash or sanitise your hands before taking it off
Use the ear loops to take the mask off and wash or sanitise your hands afterwards.
