More coronavirus restrictions will be eased on Monday (May 17) as part of the Government's roadmap out of lockdown.

Here's what's changing:

• Pubs, restaurants and cafes can serve customers inside

• Indoor entertainment and attractions can open, including cinemas, museums, theatres and children's play areas

• Up to six people or two households will be able to meet indoors and up to 30 people outdoors

• Organised sports and fitness classes can take place indoors and saunas and steam rooms may reopen

• Outdoor entertainment, such as outdoor cinemas and performances can reopen

• Up to 30 people can attend weddings, receptions and commemorative events, including wakes

• International travel can begin to reopen, allowing people to go on foreign holidays to 'green list' countries

• Face coverings will no longer be needed in classrooms

This is stage three in the Government's four-part plan, with stage four - when restrictions won't be in place - when it is hoped nightclubs and other business can reopen, there will be no limit on guests at life events and no limit on social interactions - until June 21 at the earliest.
