He has created a virtual reality Instagram filter which displays a selection of Horsham pubs before choosing one from the list.
Andrew, 25, said: “I had seen a similar filter on a mate’s Instagram page and thought it would be a good idea to do the same but with Horsham pubs.
“I am sure lots of people are looking forward to when the pubs re-open, this seemed like a fun way to start planning!”

He added: “It was a bit tricky in places, but nothing too technical.
“Most people seem to like the idea, and have had fun trying it out.” Andrew said he chose which pubs to include based on his local knowledge.
Venues in the filter include Brewhouse and Kitchen, The Red Deer and The Lynd Cross.

Andrew said the first pub he plans to visit when restrictions are lifted will be ‘whichever pub my mates are in’.
He added: “It will be great to get back to seeing people again after this lockdown is over.”
Andrew’s filter effect is called ‘Which Horsham Pub?’ on Instagram.
