Officers will work with the public
Police Scotland will continue to maintain a positive relationship with the public as we continue in Phase 1 of the COVID-19 lockdown exit plan and guidance.
People are now permitted to leave home for the following reasons:
■ Meeting people from one other household outdoors, no more than eight people in total;
■ Taking part in non-contact recreation activity;
■ Accessing recycling or waste disposal services;
■ In addition, garden centres and plant nurseries were permitted to reopen from May 29.
■ If you are going outside, it is suggested you don’t travel more than five miles from your home address.
Police Scotland will continue to work together to ensure that no person or group in Scotland feels marginalised or isolated.
