This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

The Government published new guidance at the start of December covering arrangements for visiting care homes in England. This guidance notes that visiting should be supported and enabled wherever it is possible to do so safely, including indoor visits in all local restriction tiers where the visitor has been tested and returned a negative result.

If there are changes you would like to see to this guidance, you could start a new petition calling for those changes.
