A potential loss of a million pounds.

That's how a Lincolnshire faith leader has described the impact of the Government's new lockdown measures.

Churches across the country are only open for private prayer with traditional services currently not allowed.

David Court is the acting bishop for the diocese of Lincoln, which covers areas including Stamford.

He says he's also concerned about the mental health impact of the new lockdown.
