Living with Covid or Long Covid, or coping with a loss?
Covid Aid no longer gives advice itself, but you are not on your own. Below are trusted UK organisations with current, maintained guidance, and a free peer support community for people living with Long Covid or ME.
If this is an emergency, or you feel unsafe or in crisis, call 999, or call NHS 111 (in Scotland, contact NHS 24 on 111). If you are struggling to cope, the Samaritans are available day and night on 116 123.
