“We’re all looking forward to enjoying the return of these freedoms we have missed so much over the last few months, to seeing more of friends and family and getting out and supporting more of our region’s businesses.

“The virus has not gone away and there is increasing concern about the presence of the new b.1.617 variant, first identified in India, across the country and in our region.

“So today we are appealing to everyone to not be complacent. Please keep following the rules on social distancing, wear a face-covering where required, wash your hands regularly and take care when visiting friends and family indoors, especially to protect people who are more vulnerable.

“It’s also vital the everybody gets a Covid vaccine when invited – and gets both jabs be sure of the maximum protection for themselves and others.
