Coronavirus information for residents - Warwick District Council

Stay safe

There are three simple actions we must all do to keep on protecting each other:

Wash hands: keep washing your hands regularly
Cover face: wear a face covering in enclosed spaces
Make space: stay at least 2 metres apart - or 1 metre with a face covering or other precautions

Local authorities across Coventry, Solihull and Warwickshire have come together to develop a local plan to manage Covid-19. Visit Stay Safe CSW for more information.
