The Covid-19 pandemic is still very much with us. If you develop any symptoms, including a new, continuous cough, a high temperature or a change to your sense of smell or taste, we urge you to book a test immediately.
Across the county borough, we are approaching 100,000 fully vaccinated people and 86 per cent of the eligible population have had at least their first dose of the vaccine.
