We’ve teamed up with partners across Derbyshire to deliver a message worth repeating: stay at home, protect the NHS, and save lives.
We’re releasing this short video together ahead of the predicted warmer weather this weekend, and the Easter weekend that follows.
It is our duty to try and limit the spread of coronavirus but we know that with sunnier skies comes the temptation to go out and get together with family and friends.
But it is critically important that we all continue to abide by the ongoing restrictions on movement and the rules on social distancing.
Everyone featured in this video plays a role in society that means they don’t have the luxury of staying at home. They all head out to work every day to keep our society moving.
So please watch the short clip and remember that we are all in this together. We need to protect the NHS, and by staying at home and heading out only locally, we can all play our part in saving lives.
This video has been created by a team including Derbyshire Constabulary, Derbyshire Fire and Rescue Service, Derbyshire County Council, Derby City Council, Derby Mountain Rescue Team, the Peak District National Park Authority, High Peak Borough Council, South Derbyshire District Council, Derbyshire Dales District Council, Chesterfield Royal Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, the University Hospitals of Derby and Burton, and the Central England Co-op.

Distancing Reminder
We have been so disappointed to see many folks in the area not following social distancing instructions and congregating in groups of more than two people from different households. This is extremely selfish and is putting lives at risk.
We have also seen many families out together allowing children to use play park equipment.
Please, please, please follow the below instructions in order to slow the spread of coronavirus and save the lives of your family, friends, neighbours and local children:
Stay at home
Only go outside for food, health reasons or work
(but only if you cannot work from home)
If you go out, stay 2 metres (6ft) away from other people at all times
Wash your hands as soon as you get home
Do not meet others, even friends or family.
You can spread the virus even if you don’t have symptoms.
