Pictures from a sunny day at Sunderland's coast as loved ones reunite under roadmap rule change

The start of this week marked a key moment in the Government’s roadmap out of lockdown with family and friends permitted to meet up outdoors under the rule of six, or as part of two households.

Here are pictures taken while out and about in the sunshine on Tuesday – thank you to everyone who stopped to say hello!
