Most Covid restrictions scrapped as lockdown lifted

Schools and businesses open with gathering limits removed

The Island's third lockdown has been lifted today with social distancing and other Coronavirus measures scrapped.

All limits on gatherings have been removed and schools have reopened to all pupils.

It also signals a return to work for many including non-essential shops and hospitality.

The government decision to end most restrictions comes after no evidence of community spread since 30 March.

However non-residents are still unable to enter the Island without special permission.
