Im so torn on this, as much as I am going to push for home working and then only travelling in once a week, I also dont want an great influx of people from the cities moving out. It’ll just mean more building outside of cities which defeats the object of moving away
I live 45 miles from Liverpool St. station. I can walk for miles & see only the odd farmhouse. The population density is incredibly low & could absorb a lot more without detriment if done sensibly & sensitively.

Rather depends whether we’re going to get theatres, museums and concert halls back. Not much point staying in the big city without them.

I hope we all have more time to invest in our communities. Even suburbs and commuter towns could be better places if not treated as just dormitories. Plus the benefits of being accessible for occasional office days or even some culture.

As an ex city corporate analyst turned art therapist, I’m really happy that people may be spreading out of the city into other parts of the UK. However, it’s become increasingly evident why we need to regulate our exposure to screens for our wellbeing and health. There’s a warmth exchanged in face-to-face interactions, movement and touch; whereas computers only offer a cold light that can harden the body. Furthermore, we need to consider the harm to animals and plant life from increased WiFi use through our countryside.
