Do not restrict the number of visitors care home residents can receive

Closed 27 signatures

What the petition asks

Let residents live how they are meant too - by being surrounded by family and friends. They shouldn’t be having these restrictions enforced on them all the time, whilst large events and stadiums full of people can still continue.
They have been isolated enough. Everyone should have the right to freedom and not have to pick between family members of who gets to see them.

What’s the point of vaccines, PPE, testing if relatives still can’t visit properly?

This must stop now. This is making the vulnerable even more vulnerable.
