Parks facilities and retailers begin re-opening Sheffield’s parks grounds have remained open throughout lockdown to allow daily exercise, but all other facilities were closed. Since the restrictions changed Sheffield City Council has been reviewing facilities within parks to assess what can be safely reopened. Tennis courts were reopened on 21 May, and now car parks and bowls will also be in use again. Toilets, cafes, club houses, playgrounds and other multi-use games areas remain closed. The council is working with cafe owners and lease holders, as well as ice cream van operators, to support them towards safely reopening in early June. Councillor Mary Lea, Cabinet Member for Culture, Parks and Leisure at Sheffield City Council, said: “We kept all our parks grounds open to allow people the many benefits of daily
exercise in outdoor green spaces, on their doorsteps, but closed all other facilities to keep people safe. “Since the Government updated restrictions around time spent in parks and relaxing rules on essential travel, we have been reviewing all our parks’ facilities to enable reopening of those where we feel safe social distancing can still happen.
Non-essential retailers allowed to trade again from next month All non-essential retailers will be able to reopen in England from 15 June, PM Boris Johnson has announced, as part of plans to further ease the lockdown.
However, the move is “contingent on progress in the fight against coronavirus”, and retailers will have to adhere to new guidelines to protect shoppers and workers, the PM added. Outdoor markets and car showrooms will be able to reopen from 1 June. Mr Johnson said new guidance had been published for the retail sector “detailing the measures they should take to meet the necessary social distancing and hygiene standards”. “Shops now have the time to implement this guidance before they reopen,” he said. “This will ensure there can be no doubt about what steps they should take.”
Anyone who has any symptoms of the coronavirus illness (Covid19), however mild, should stay at home. Anyone listed by the Government as being in the at risk group, should stay at home.
