Have differing approaches to social distancing rules caused issues in your family?

Carolyn Spray at Pentland Plants Garden Centre, Edinburgh, prepares for reopening to the public by sticking a noticed on the ground reminding people to keep 2 metres apart, after the Scottish Government has announced there will be an ease to the lockdown measures this week allowing people to meet friends in small groups outdoors, sunbathe and start shopping at garden centres.

The prime minister has confirmed that the 2-metre rule would be dropped in favour of a “1-metre-plus” approach, as people from two different households will be able to drink or dine together from 4 July in England.

However, those who are more at risk or vulnerable may choose to continue to maintain the 2-metre rule or wear face masks or gloves.

We want to hear from people who have experienced any issues with friends or family over different approaches to physical distancing.
