    Hi @WAYNE69 How are you today?

    I understand your frustration about this, being able to socialise again in pubs shouldn't be something exclusively accessible to non-disabled people.  What parts of the current arrangements have you found a barrier to going?  Have you managed to meet up with friends in other outside spaces?  I hope so and that it's not too long before you feel comfortable, and able, to safely go to the pub again. 

    Although I know it doesn't replace meeting up physically and going for a pint(!), we have a virtual fortnightly CP café that you might like to join in with?  Take a look at this thread for more details :)

    HI @WAYNE69
    I never really had that many issues apart from the old "he is already drunk" routine and occasionally a less than perfect toilet. But there is always room for improvement that's for sure.
    What are the main barriers for you as a person with hemi-CP?

    What type of venues are you booking @WAYNE69? I don't think we are connected on social media?
