Keep carrying your face mask and using social distancing, that's the message from leaders in North Yorkshire as the compulsory use of face coverings ends tomorrow.
Richard Webb is the County Council's Director of Health and Adult Services, he says that health experts and local businesses are keen to see the use of face masks continue:
On the eve of the end of lockdown restrictions, leaders in North Yorkshire are encouraging everyone to stick with measures like social distancing even though they are no longer legally required.
The county's COVID infection rate has increased dramatically over the last few weeks and is now back at levels last seen in January, although hospital admissions for COVID are significantly lower than in January.
