Petition Action

Exempt children aged 11 and under from rule of 6 in all of the United Kingdom

Petition Details

We want children younger than 11 to be exempt from the rule of 6. Parents often look to grandparents, siblings with and other parents with similar aged children need to have a support network.

Additional Information

Children are at a very low risk from this virus. Parents rely on their extended families and friends with children for emotional and practical support. this ‘rule of 6’ will create loneliness and isolation at a time when families need support.
