Half of us planning to meet up with family over Christmas, says ONS
Just 38 per cent say they won't form a bubble using the new Christmas rules
Half of adults across the country said they were planning to form a Christmas bubble, according to new data from the Office for National Statistics (ONS).
This compared to 38% who said they were not planning to form a bubble over the festive period and 12% who said they did not know, according to an ONS survey between December 10 and 13.
The survey also showed that just over half (56%) of adults in Great Britain reported they felt it was very easy or easy to understand rules for forming a Christmas bubble.
The ONS said this understanding seemed to increase with age, with 48% of those aged between 16 and 29 reporting this, compared with 55% of adults aged 30 to 49, 58% of 50 to 69-year-olds and 61% of people aged 70 years and over.
