We appreciate that people with Long Covid can’t always be the ones actively raising the funds for us. Do you know anyone in your family, friends, neighbours or work colleagues who would be to participate in an event on behalf of us? If so, there are lots of events that they could take part in across the country and abroad.
Here are some of the wonderful human beings who have been raising funds on behalf of Long Covid Support lately.
