Covid 19 New National Restrictions and Guidance from 5th November

As outlined in the Prime Minister’s statement on 31 October, from Thursday, 5
November new national restrictions will apply in England in an effort to reduce the rapid
increase in COVID-19 infections across the country, hospitalisations and loss of life.

The new restrictions will be in place until 2 December and are aimed at reducing day-to-day
contact between people – therefore closing certain businesses and venues and encouraging people to stay at home wherever possible, except for specific reasons.

The East Riding Food Poverty Alliance (ERFPA) and its constituent foodbank members are now providing all emergency food parcel distribution.

Paid for food parcels are still available as a last resort, with this service being delivered on ERYC behalf by East Yorkshire Foodbank.
