THREAD of things you still have the legal right to do in England at the moment, and relevant parts of the legislation to back you up - all references are to the Health Protection (Coronavirus, Restrictions) (England) Guidelines 2020: http://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2020/350/regulation/6/made

You CAN go out to help other people get food and essential items - Reg. 6, para 2(a)

You CAN go out for exercise alone or with someone you live with, and there is NO LEGAL RESTRICTION on the length of that exercise - Reg. 6, para 2(b)

You CAN go out to access critical public services (childcare, social services, DWP, victim support services) - Reg. 6, para 2(i)

You CAN leave your house "to avoid injury or illness or to escape a risk of harm" - Reg. 6, para 2(m)

You CAN be in groups of more than two in public if you're all from the same household - Reg. 7(a)

You CAN be in groups of more than two in public if it is "reasonably" necessary to "provide care or assistance to a vulnerable person" - Reg. 7(d)(ii) - mutual aid pals take note!

The police can compel you to go home if they "consider" you to have breached regulation 6 (e.g. not having a reasonable excuse). So being able to quote the part of regulation 6 that covers what you're doing may be useful.
