IOS 15.1 & battery draining

Hi all - since updating to IOS 15.1 I can no longer have Bluetooth on as it drains my battery in about 20 minutes. This means I can no longer connect my Apple Watch or have the COVIDSafe app running without my battery draining. Is there something I'm doing wrong??

iPhone 11, iOS 15
