A 22-year-old woman, who lives in Salford, has been fined £6,600 for breaching self-isolation laws in Jersey. Carys Ingram travelled from Manchester to visit family but failed to follow the self-isolation requirement for an amber region, which Manchester was at the time.

She was later contacted and told to self-isolate after a person on her flight tested positive.

During this time, she was seen shopping, at a restaurant and another location.

Ingram was fined £600 for the first breach and £6,000 for the subsequent three.

If she does not pay the fine, Ingram is subject to 24 weeks imprisonment.
