In a normal year, snow falling in Basingstoke would mean children and adults alike coming together to build snowmen and have snowball fights. 

But because of the Covid pandemic, the fun will have to be toned down somewhat.

What are the rules?

Covid regulations must still be followed or police could issue you with a fine. 

This means you should only go out for your daily exercise or for essential travel to work or shops.

Only one person from one household can meet with one person from another household outside.

Social distancing should be followed where possible and masks still worn inside.
