Utterly confused and getting conflicting advice . We are from a high alert / risk level area. So the middle one . Can we drag our caravan somewhere and stay over night 🤷‍♀️ without getting a fine. 

Got £1500 worth of vouchers that we will run out of time to spend if we dont get going on them 

 

we have been self isolating and i am a super shielder due to medical conditions and see no one and have zero chance of having corona virus, ( or as close to zero as is humanly possible)  . So its a legal question , rather than a moral ethical one . We see no one ...no kids , not working , so we are genuinely isolated
Sorry if question has been asked before.


Can we go on holiday tomorrow from a middle tier high risk area legally and without a fine .thanks

    There is not a restriction at this time for you to possibly spread the virus ,to other areasundecided

    I take it your vouchers hav a date on them which is?

    Super shielding yet going away? Forgive me if I find that a little contradictory. 

    I'm sure someone posted a link to the full meaning in the Covid thread and it's also on the BBC app. I'll post it if I can find it.

    Sorry ...i’m a bit thick . So there are no travel restrictions at the mo, on staying over night? 

    Im a super shielder ...if i got it it would kill me ....so we wont be spreading it . Totally self contained . Even taking own food . Understand your concerns tho .

    Thanks

    You simply have to decide if £1500 is the price you put on your own lives and possibly that of others.  

    Have you explained the problem to the voucher provider and asked if they can extend the validity?

    You can find a link to the BBC given by Cariadon in the closed Covid thread, this states the travel advice for all the tiers. The post is at the end. If you're in the very high risk area you are asked to avoid all non essential travel.

    The club is closing sites in the high risk areas.

    As far as I’m aware, there are no travel restrictions in place regarding people living in the middle category.

    And only advice regarding people living in the very high area.

    I could be very wrong, and things are changing so quickly it’s difficult to keep track.

    Do some online research for the facts. 

    I'm afraid I can only supply you with common sense.

    If you really want to travel and ignoring common sense/moral... type in your postcode in here and you'll find out.
