The thought of a second lockdown is daunting, with non-essential businesses forced to close.


While supermarkets and pharmacies will never close, shops most of us frequent will be closing.


This includes clothing and homeware stores, vehicle showrooms (other than for rental), betting shops, tailors, tobacco and vape shops, electronic goods and mobile phone shops, and market


stalls selling non-essential goods.


Hospitality venues such as cafes, restaurants, pubs, bars and social clubs with the exception of providing food and drink for takeaway click-and-collect, drive-through or delivery must also


close.
