London’s younger workers appear to be returning to offices and seeking nights out, according to data from a mobile-phone dating app that matches 10,000 people a week.

The Thursday app, which allows those seeking a partner to line up dates one day a week, has seen a shift in activity between May and August from residential areas such as Shoreditch and Fulham to the financial district in the City. Almost three-quarters of its 65,000 users in the UK capital are millennials aged between 24 and 36.
