Shops and restaurants on the east Suffolk coast are feeling really positive about their recovery from the Covid lockdown after the first week of eased restrictions.
As part of the government s roadmap out of lockdown, non-essential retailers, pubs, restaurants and hair salons were permitted to reopen for the first time in months last Monday.
Holiday lets on the coast reported a surge in bookings ahead of the reopening as many tourists embraced a staycation , with foreign travel likely to be restricted for most of the year.
