Boris Johnson has confirmed that Step Four of the Government's road map out of lockdown will go ahead as planned next Monday.
Nightclubs will be encouraged to use vaccine passports for entry, while face masks will be ‘expected and recommended’ on public transport.
It comes as case rates continue to rise across most of the country, including in Sheffield.
Sheffield’s Covid rate for the seven days to July 7 stands at 338.5 new cases per 100,000 people.
That’s up from 238.2 for the previous week and is higher than the latest UK-wide rate of 311.7.
