Six in ten Brits took up new hobby during lockdown – and almost all have continued it
Six in ten Brits (59%) took up a new hobby during lockdown – and almost all of those still continue the pastimes regularly, a study has found.
Gardening, reading, and baking were among the top activities taken up when Covid-19 hit in 2020 – with one in five saying they chose their new hobbies simply to fill the time at home.
But 80%, of the 2,000 adults polled, now say they cannot imagine ever giving up their lockdown hobby – as 91% continue to practice it.
Two-thirds (65%) of those who took up a new pastime said it was, and continues to be, a great way to battle stress – with three in ten (29%) saying painting and drawing are the best pursuits for doing so.
And more than half (57%) said their newfound passion has helped improve their mood, and boost their mental health – with outdoor activities including hiking and running also appearing on the top 10 hobbies list.
The research, commissioned by Samsung, even found that three in five (58%) would like to turn their lockdown hobby into a fully-fledged side hustle to make some extra cash – while a third wish it could be their full-time job.
