SUMMARY:Covid-Safe Social
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a relaxed social full of bonding\, discussion\, and chitter-chatter!\n\n\nThis is our January monthly social! We require (and provide) Covid tests\, FFP2/3 masks\, and HEPA air purifiers. \nThis event includes socialising\, arts and crafts\, games\, and more. \nGovernments have decided to abandon infection control and endanger those around them\, putting already-marginalised communities at risk of Long Covid and social isolation. \nWe want to create spaces for people to socialise\, find community\, and have fun without putting themselves or others at risk of damage to their immune\, cardiovascular\, or nervous systems. \nFFP2/3 masks and proof of a negative test are required on the door (and provided)\, and HEPA air purifiers will be running at all times. \nWe are specifically welcoming: \n\nDisabled people (4x higher COVID mortality rate)\nPeople of colour (32% long COVID rate)\nWomen (36% long COVID rate)\nTrans people (48% long COVID rate)\nNeurodivergent people (30% long COVID rate)\nPeople with HIV (58% long COVID rate)\n\nor anyone else at increased risk (or those who don’t want to spread such a disease to the greater London community). \nCheck out a Reel of a previous event at the London LGBTQ+ Community Centre. \nWe provide conversation facilitation and introductions\, so everyone feels comfortable and welcome. This is a seated event\, and there is a quiet room. BSL interpreters are available upon request to breatheeasyldn@gmail.com. Please also contact us or the Centre for any other access needs. \nJanuary 2026 social \nThis month\, we will also have a special table set up for vision board making and/or 2026 bingo card making\, if you feel like getting creative! Materials will be provided\, but feel free to bring your own magazines/pens/paper/glue/scissors to add to the table if you have any. Participation is completely optional. \nIf you would like to take part in the activity and aren’t able to bring any materials\, if within your budget\, we ask that you bring a £4 donation on the day to help us cover the cost of materials (or you can donate online via our GoFundMe). If you’re bringing your own materials\, either to use just yourself or to share with the group\, then no donation is needed (unless you’re feeling generous!) :). \nPhoto in slider taken by Breathe Easy London from a previous Covid-Safe Social at the Centre. \nCovid safety at the event \nAttendees will be greeted and asked to provide proof of a negative COVID test in the last 24 hours. \nIf attendees don’t have the opportunity to take one beforehand\, they will be provided and asked to take them outside. \nAfter confirming negative tests\, attendees will be provided an FFP2 mask (if they do not have their own) and invited to socialise with other attendees at various activity tables (board games\, arts and crafts\, conversation prompts\, etc). \nAttendees are welcome to ask organisers for an introduction to any table to break the ice. \nAfter 20-30 minutes\, we will invite guests to switch to a different activity or take a break if they wish\, though this will not be required. \nStanding will not be required for any portion of this event. \nFor everyone’s safety\, please do not attend the event if you are unwell or have any unusual symptoms\, especially signs or symptoms of respiratory illness such as a sore throat\, cough\, runny nose\, fever\, etc. We can provide a refund at any time in the lead up to the event. \nIf you have any access needs (e.g. BSL interpreter\, lip reading masks\, etc)\, please email hello@londonlgbtqcentre.org. \nAbout the organisers \nBreathe Easy London is a group of immunocompromised/Covid-conscious Londoners organising monthly events for members of our community to safely socialise. \nOrganisers include Greta Mauch (she/her)\, Anni Movsisyan (she/they)\, Georgia Newman (she/her)\, Daniel Wagner-Hall (he/they)\, and three other London-based volunteers. \nVisit their website or Instagram to find out more\, and support their GoFundMe to help make more events happen! \nAccessibility \nOur full accessibility statement is here. \nDonate to the Centre \nWe rely on donations to ensure that the London LGBTQ+ Community Centre can keep its doors open for years to come. \nTo donate or become a Friend of the Centre\, visit our website.
