The latest data from Public Health England (Saturday 8 August) shows there are increasing cases of coronavirus in your area particularly Heston East which are affecting your communities and we need you to play your part.

The spread of cases suggests it’s due to wider family and friend groups meeting and not maintaining social distancing.

Please help stop the spread and keep your family and friends safe. You must maintain social distancing from people who do not live in your home.Stay 2 metres away from them at all times.

You can spread coronavirus without symptoms. Don’t be the one who makes your vulnerable friends and relatives sick.
