Closed Promptly create an awareness campaign detailing effects of COVID19 on children.

Closed on

Create a clear campaign that informs parents of the COVID symptoms children present with. This should include the criteria for a child to get a test and the long-lasting effects COVID can have on children.

Long Covid Kids Support & Campaign Group started in the autumn & represents over 400 children.

Our children got COVID19 in Lockdown 1/2 & are are still ill.

We receive emails from parents who tell us that by the time they realised their child needed a test it was 'too late for testing', they didn't 'know what to look for'.

These children are not included in the statistics.

Children must be counted so informed decisions can be made in education and healthcare.

Children may also need Long Covid services and without being counted how can we evidence that?
