Responding to the PM's 'Living with Covid' plan, Helen Dickinson, Chief Executive of the British Retail Consortium, said:

"The lifting of the legal requirement to self-isolate may further speed the return to a more normal experience for customers, employees and businesses. Retailers will be looking closely at the details of the plans. However, we all have a personal responsibility towards the safety of those around us and we ask customers to be considerate of those around them and avoid retail settings if they are showing Covid symptoms.”
