Update of coronavirus symptoms – loss of smell and taste
The government has updated the list of symptoms linked to coronavirus. All individuals should self-isolate if they develop a new continuous cough, or fever, or loss of – or change to – your sense of smell and taste.

Individuals who have these symptoms should stay at home for at least seven days, and members of their household should stay at home and not leave the house for 14 days. For more guidance go here ([link removed][UNIQID]) .

You can read the full statement on updated symptoms here ([link removed][UNIQID])

Using local parks
We’ve opened-up some facilities in our parks, such as car parks, bowling greens, tennis courts and multi-use games areas in line with government guidelines. But we would urge everyone to practice social distancing if you are visiting. Play areas, pavilions and toilets remain closed at the moment. Details of what’s open and what isn't are on the website ([link removed][UNIQID]) .
