Many constituents who are currently stranded abroad following worldwide travel bans and quarantines have written to Lucy Allan MP asking for assistance.
The Government is in contact with airlines and countries that have imposed travel restrictions to enable British citizens to return home. £75 million has been made available for charter flights to assist British Nationals stranded abroad if there is no other available avenue.
This morning, the first Telford constituents were successfully accepted onto a charter flight back to the UK.
- If you are travelling abroad, you should:
- Contact your airline or travel company now.
- Keep up-to-date with the Foreign Office's travel advice pages. The Government is updating information on returning from the country you are in as the situation develops.
- For real-time updates, follow the embassy or high commission’s social media for the country you’re in.
- If you are a Telford constituent and require further assistance, please email [email protected].
