Although most major supermarkets are open again today, some will be operating slightly different trading hours to normal due to the bank holiday.

Before travelling to your local supermarket, you should also keep in mind if the store is operating any special shopping hours for the elderly or for NHS workers during the coronavirus pandemic.
