Worcester Editorial 6th Dec, 2020   0

WALKERS in Worcestershire are being reminded to keep to social distancing rules after crowds gathered on the Clent, Lickey and Malvern hills.

West Mercia Police recently dealt with numerous reports of people not observing social distancing.

People living close to Clent and to the Malvern Hills were said to be alarmed by what they were seeing.

The County Council has asked people living in Worcestershire to make sure they are sticking to social distancing guidance when out and about.




Inspector Lee Page of West Mercia Police said: “We have seen a large number of people travelling to the beautiful open spaces in our county for exercise.

“We don’t want stop anyone from getting out in the fresh air but if it’s too busy in certain locations than try somewhere else.”
