Richard Silk became the first person to tee off at a midnight golf charity event at Morley Hayes near Derby.

Players used glow-in-the-dark balls and floodlit greens, with Mr Silk's opening drive coming at 12.01am.

The course believes it was the first to reopen in England under the relaxation of lockdown rules.

From this morning, two households or groups of up to six people are now able to meet outside - including in private gardens - as the stay-at-home order comes to an end.

Outdoor sport facilities including tennis courts and golf courses are also reopening, and organised outdoor sports can resume.

Weddings are allowed again, attended by up to six people, but people have been told to work from home if possible.

Non-essential shops, gyms and entertainment venues remain closed while pubs and restaurants are only permitted to offer takeaway food. Holidays abroad are also still banned.

Now we have more scope for outdoor socialising, is the weather going to be kind to us?

The answer is yes - with a dry, warm and increasingly sunny day expected across the East Midlands.

Warm and sunny conditions are also anticipated for Tuesday and Wednesday.
