Is England heading for a third wave? Here are the Blackpool areas where Covid infections rose in the first week of June

Lockdown is gradually lifting in Blackpool and across England - but there are some areas where coronavirus cases are rising.

And although case rates have predominantly fallen across the country, there are still concerns the roadmap out of lockdown could be threatened by the Delta variant.

The latest figures show 17 out of 19 neighbourhoods saw an increase in infections in the latest seven-day period, the first week of June.

Little Bispham & Anchorsholme was the only area to record fewer than 3 cases of Covid.
