Support local businesses, bring a laptop and plot your area, here's how to picnic while social distancing. Find out more on Grazia.
Boris Johnson has announced changes to the current lockdown measures that mean people can now sit in the park as long as they follow social distancing guidelines. For the time being, people can sunbathe or sit in the park with members of their household or with one other person from outside their house as long as they are outside and stay two metres apart at all times.
The measures received a mixed response, with some welcoming the news given the rising temperatures of recent weekends while others were wary of how feasible it is that parks and public spaces won’t be overrun with people if we can all suddenly loiter for as long as we like. This may not always be possible, but if it’s a park or space you're familiar with – plan ahead to pick the least populated areas and times to spend in the park. You may want to embrace the midday sun, but remember many others will too - so maybe hold off until late afternoon before heading down and keep an eye on the busier times in your local area.
It might sound superficial, but you're allowed to be extra planning the one social outing we've been granted in two months. If you're celebrating an occasion, you could even bring party items or presents to make it all the more fun - it's not like we don't have the time to plan, huh?With that shared responsibility in mind, it may also be fun to have one person each bring a vital part of the picnic food.
