What were the rules in August/September?

I keep hearing people saying that gatherings of up to 30 people outside were allowed in the summer - I completely missed that memo. I thought strictly speaking it was always 6?

We did attend a few gatherings larger than 6 people in the summer, picnics in the park etc, but I always thought I was breaking the rules. Others have implied that it was ok as could have up to 30?

Advice was 6, law was up to 30.

The law was no gatherings over 30, but guidance was 6. This meant things like outdoor exercise classes/football training/etc with up to 30 could happen

Up to 6 was guidance, 30 was law. Do more than 6 you were breaking the guidance, more than 30 breaking the law.

I think guidance was 6 and law was 30

Up to 30 was allowed outdoors in Wales!
