Covid Aid charity looks to reach and support more people with Long Covid after receiving much-needed funding from The Scottish Government.
With a consistent demand for support, guidance and advice on Long Covid and other Covid-19-related issues, with this funding, Covid Aid looks to launch new services to further their support.
This includes the launch of a Scotland group on the support community, a self-management programme in partnership with LGOWIT for Long Covid, the launch of a mobile phone app for the support community and a Long Covid awareness campaign. Further information on this can be found on our webpage here.
Health Secretary Humza Yousaf said:
Covid Aid Executive Director, Joyce Gray said:
This funding comes at an important time for the charity, as we approach almost three years since the beginning of the pandemic, and many continue to struggle with Covid-19-related issues.
If you would like to sign up for our self-management programme in partnership with LGOWIT, you can access the course here
You can also join our Scottish Long Covid Community here, where new groups and resources will soon be available for people suffering from Long Covid in Scotland
