Particularly relevant at the moment is Article 8 of the Act.
Article 8 recognises and legally protects each individual’s right to a family life, including the right to live with their family and where this is not possible the right to regular contact with them. It also covers wider aspects of an individual’s private life, such as wider relationships (friends and partners) and participating in community life. It is not what is called an ‘absolute’ right, which cannot be interfered with any situation. Article 8 can be interfered with (breached) but only if the organisation breaching it can show that it is
absolutely necessary and proportionate to do so. For example, if a care home doesn’t have an outbreak of COVID-19 but is banning all visiting or not considering the individual needs of people in order to facilitate appropriate contact, they may not be meeting their duties under the Human Rights Act, and you should consider raising it as a concern.
