Stay safe and well
The new going out checklist
Shops, restaurants, theatres and museums – the world has opened up again at this point in the pandemic. However, to keep you protected there are a couple of extra items you need to check you have with you before you leave the house.
Even if you have had your COVID-19 vaccinations, you may want to wear a mask or a sunflower lanyard to encourage others to give you your space.
On this page you will find:
- a short animation about the kinds of things to remember to take with you when you leave the house
- a downloadable checklist that you can edit and print off for your own use
Restrictions haven’t been too onerous, I just have to remember the mask.

Your personal checklist
Different people need to remember different things when heading out and about. We’ve created a downloadable checklist which you can edit for your own use.
- Take anything off the checklist which doesn’t apply to you.
- Add in any extra items you need to remember (such as reading glasses).
- Print it out.
- Stick it up by your back door to help you check you have all you need before heading out.
