Advice if you're worried about seeing people with face coverings

There have been many changes to our lives since the coronavirus outbreak.

From 24 July everyone over the age of 11, in England, will have to wear a mask or face covering in a shop or supermarket. Children under 11 and those with certain medical conditions won't have to wear them though.

Psychologist Dr Julie Smith gives us her tips for getting used to this change.
