From 6 July, people in England with underlying health issues who have been shielding since March will be allowed to leave their homes.
They will be able to meet up outside in groups of up to six people from different households, provided they keep 2 metres apart, and they will no longer have to remain 2 metres apart from the rest of their household at home.
