Support bubbles in tier 4

[allgoodthings84]

My support bubble is now tier 4. Can I still see them? We are both single adult households

Don't know. He was not clear on tier 4 support bubbles. We will have to wait for the published guidance.

Yes my understanding was you can

I’m not tier 4 I’m tier 3. I’m not that far away from him but not local. I know support bubbles are still allowed in tier 4 but need to know if I’m allowed to drive to his. He won’t be working now or seeing anyone

Guess have to wait for official guidance to be released but meant to be seeing him tomorrow. He’s my partner I don’t know if I can not see him again like I did the first 12 weeks or so of lockdown 1

Im following this....I live in tier 2 but my mum who is in my support bubble lives in tier 4. It would help if they were more specific about everything. I can't find anything online to say it would be ok or not

Sunnysunshine40 I'm exactly the same as you single in tier 4 and my parents are 20 miles away in tier 2

You can still move between tiers to see people in your support bubble.

I'm with you. I'm in tier 4 single parent, and my single parent partner is in tier 3. Had planned on spending Xmas together (just him, me and my ds). From what I've read he can come to me as my support bubble. Unlikely to leave the house anyway, other than maybe an outdoors walk at some point! Same bubble I've had throughout. Madness, and all so last minute and upsetting.

According to my Dad my support bubble is no longer valid because although I'm a single parent i have teens so aren't at risk of loneliness.
Yet my sister (who is bubbled with him) is still allowed hers even though she's also a single parent whos bf stays over most nights because her DS is younger, and her mental health is suffering. ( i spend most days pushing suicidal thoughts to the back of my mind but because I'm not phoning him up in tears apparently I'm fine)

From what I've read support bubbles are all allowed.

@Orf1abc thank you for that link. Good to know we're all legal and above board. We're rule abiding folk, and I could feel the panic rising in me.

It still doesn’t 100% confirm if travelling into a tier 4 is ok for support bubble. Just says best to make it a local support bubble.

It doesn’t say you can’t either though. I don’t want to break rules but we both need each other and I don’t think I can do it again

It says you can go to support bubble but can't stay overnight

Yes, you can travel out of tier 4 to see your support bubble:

"Travelling out of a tier 4 area
You must stay at home and not leave your Tier 4 area, other than for legally permitted reasons such as:

travel to work where you cannot work from home
travel to education and for caring responsibilities
visit those in your support bubble - or your childcare bubble for childcare
attend hospital, GP and other medical appointments or visits where you have had an accident or are concerned about your health"

Oh thank god for that thank you so much everyone xx
