Businesses are being asked to help raise awareness of the Government’s guidance for tourists who fall ill whilst on holiday in England.

Parks should direct customers to the advice displayed on the VisitEngland website. This includes answers to questions such as:

  • What to do if you develop Covid-19 symptoms whilst on holiday
  • What holidaymakers must do if contacted by NHS Test & Trace while away, i.e. notify your accommodation provider at once and self-isolate
  • If visitors are well enough to return home, they are asked to do so and then self-isolate at home.

The website includes dedicated copy for businesses to use to communicate with customers. It could, for example, be sent with your booking confirmation.

It clearly states that accommodation providers are not obliged to provide self-isolating facilities and guests will be liable for any additional costs.
