Quick poll shows a reluctance to go back to venues just yet.At the weekend, ahead  of the government’s announcement that restaurants cafes  and pubs could reopen from July 4th, together with a reduction in social distancing from 2metres to ‘ a mitigated’ 1 metre, we asked members of The GScene LGBTQ+ FB group if they are ready to return.This is how folk responded:

Out of 1250 members of the group 78 answered.48 said NO they didn’t feel safe yet21 said YES they can’t wait8 said YES to restaurants/cafes, but NO to pubs1 said they never go out anyway.

Support independent LGBTQ+ journalism

Scene was founded in Brighton in 1993, at a time when news stories about Pride protests were considered radical.

Since then, Scene has remained proudly independent, building a platform for queer voices. Every subscription helps us to report on the stories that matter to LGBTQ+ people across the UK and beyond.


Your support funds our journalists and contributes to Pride Community Foundation’s grant-making and policy work.
