Another question about bubbles

[SpeedofaSloth]

What are the rules about support bubbles and childcare bubbles now? I am confused, I saw a Metro article that says you can have a support bubble plus a childcare bubble, but I can't see that on the gov.uk website?

Support bubbles: www.gov.uk/guidance/making-a-support-bubble-with-another-household

Childcare bubbles are in the guidance for the relevant tier
High www.gov.uk/guidance/local-covid-alert-level-high?priority-taxon=774cee22-d896-44c1-a611-e3109cce8eae#childcare
Very high www.gov.uk/guidance/local-covid-alert-level-very-high?priority-taxon=774cee22-d896-44c1-a611-e3109cce8eae#childcare

Thanks, that was the guidance I saw. So can you simultaneously be part of a support bubble and also a childcare bubble, do you think it means?

Yes, there’s nothing to say you can’t. And they’re very different - a support bubble is to support a single adult, a childcare bubble is for children to be cared for but doesn’t allow the adults involved to mix freely.

Thank you, that is reassuring.
