Culture secretary Oliver Dowden announces formation of task force to help the Premier League and other sports get up and running safely in wake of coronavirus crisis with former Lionesses star Alex Scott to serve on it

Culture Secretary Oliver Dowden has revealed he is 'setting up a renewal task force' as the Government look to get sporting and cultural events back underway again in a 'crowd free' way.

The sporting calendar has been decimated recently due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic but it is slowly creeping back into business, with Premier League clubs beginning group sessions again on Tuesday.

And on Wednesday, Dowden confirmed he is looking at getting the Premier League and other sports up and running safely - with the help of former England Women international Alex Scott.
