Villa Gaiety wants public thoughts on safety measures

The Villa Gaiety wants to hear what residents would want in place at the venue to stay safe when it's allowed to reopen.

It's launched a survey to find out how people would feel about coming back once they're able to return and what changes may be needed to make audiences feel comfortable.

The facility has been closed during lockdown but is hoping to get back up and running in October - the team there says they're 'carefully considering' the lasting effects the pandemic may have on venues and live performances for the future.

Those wanting to put forward their views on the matter can complete the survey anonymously - it's available here and on the Villa Gaiety Facebook page.
