The government is changing some social contact restrictions for a short period of time over Christmas.

Between 23 and 27 December:

• You can form an exclusive ‘Christmas bubble’ composed of people from no more than three households
• You can only be in one Christmas bubble (Children under 18 whose parents do not live together may be part of both parents’ Christmas bubbles, if their parents choose to form separate bubbles. Nobody else should be in two bubbles)
• You cannot change your Christmas bubble
• You can travel between tiers and UK nations for the purposes of meeting your Christmas bubble
• You can only meet your Christmas bubble in private homes or in your garden, places of worship, or public outdoor spaces
• You can continue to meet people who are not in your Christmas bubble outside your home according to the rules in the tier where you are staying
• You cannot meet someone in a private dwelling who is not part of your household or Christmas bubble
