Here's a round-up of Covid fines across Warwickshire over the weekend - including five people who held a 'gathering' at a house in Rugby

A total of 45 people were given Covid fines across Warwickshire over the weekend - including five people who held a 'gathering' at a house in Rugby.

Just down the road, there were 25 fines in Leamington and seven in Kenilworth, all for house or birthday parties.

The 'gathering' in Rugby happened on Friday at a house in Harrowell Close.

Officers are keen to point out that it is the minority of people continuing to put themselves and others at risk by ignoring the rules - the majority are sticking to the rules.

ACC Alex Franklin Smith from Warwickshire Police said: “We must all continue to play our part in reducing the spread of the virus to ensure the steps out of the current predicament are truly effective. Thank you to all those who continue to follow the rules and take responsibility for tackling this virus. Please be assured that we continue to take breaches of the regulations extremely seriously due to the risks involved.”
