With the Stay at Home message becoming Stay Local from tomorrow (Friday), we know many of you will be keen to get outdoors and enjoy a bit more freedom than you’ve had in recent months.
But with that freedom comes a huge amount of personal responsibility - not only for the safety of both yourself and others - but also for our beautiful countryside and coastline.
We understand that people will want to visit some of the more well-known attractions, but we have so many wonderful areas and sights to see across Aberdeenshire that it’s not worth risking our health or impacting on the countryside when it’s clearly become too crowded.
So at all times remember the following:
Stay local
By exercising near our own communities, we can help reduce the spread of the disease and the pressure on rural communities and emergency services
Plan ahead
Some hotspots could be busy and facilities such as car parks, shops and toilets may be closed or access reduced, so plan ahead before setting out – including checking the relevant website - and be prepared to move to your Plan B site
Be responsible
Remember to follow the Scottish Outdoor Access Code and be responsible for your dog, especially around farmland and areas where there may be ground nesting birds. Take all your litter home with you and abide by the latest guidance on hygiene and physical distancing.
Take it easy
Support our NHS, emergency services and rescue teams during this challenging time by avoiding riskier outings and always remember the FACTS

We did not think that we would be at Aboyne Farmers Market this month with our plants but the Government have allowed garden centres to open from the 5th April which means we can sell our plants.
Looking forward to seeing you there - Saturday 10th April, Aboyne Green, 10 am to 2 pm
