Dublin moves to Risk LEVEL 3

Dublin City and County will enter Level 3 of Covid-19 restrictions from midnight tonight for the next three weeks.

To help you, I have put the list below of the restrictions.

The spread of Covid-19 is a challenge for everyone, some people might find it more worrying than others and I know this from talking to residents. You are not alone.

Please keep safe and remember that I’m here if I can be of assistance to you and your family.
