Guidelines COVID-19

Hi my name is Rose. I am in need of some advise please regarding the guidelines with COVID-19.
Being a mum to my autistic son who moved into supported living last August the timing was not good.
An agency supplies the support for son . When we have been hit with lockdowns . My son was my support bubble Which has been taken away from me .

Reading the guidelines on the gov.uk site. Is so confusing my son is my support bubble and on the site it seems it is still being used.
Any advice please will be much appreciated. Thank you

I was just reading the guidelines and it's clear to me your son's household is your support bubble if you live alone.

but also you can leave home to "to provide care for disabled or vulnerable people." Someone in supported living is clearly in the vulnerable category.

I live on my own, and I visit two friends who live together as my support bubble. So I assume the same applies to you and your son.

But also there are lots of exceptions where you can visit someone to support your or their mental health etc and autism falls within that category.

The rules aren't inhuman, so I think you should go. And it's legit to make an honest, mistaken interpretation of them.
