Bournemouth friendship group helps lockdown isolation

A group of young people have created a community of new friends after becoming isolated during lockdown.

Rupert Davison, from Bournemouth, created a Facebook group for people in their 20s and 30s where they could meet new people and organise social events.

The group now has more than 3,500 members and has helped create hundreds of new friendships.
