The pandemic affected every single person in the UK. Every one of our experiences is unique and this is your opportunity to share with the UK Covid-19 Inquiry the impact it had on you, your life, and the other people around you.  

Was your job, business or benefits affected?  

  • Were you a key worker (teachers, cleaners, transport, taxi or delivery drivers) and been affected? 
  • Were you furloughed during the pandemic? What was your experience? 
  • How did the pandemic impact your community? Clubs or social groups? 
  • Have you experienced domestic abuse, and did you get support?  
  • Did you go through arranging funerals for your loved ones? 
  • Were you homeless during the pandemic? 

While we can’t change the past, by sharing your experience with the Inquiry, you can help us to understand and assess what happened to you during the pandemic. 

 This will assist the development of recommendations made by the Inquiry, that could help future generations. Any details that could identify you will be removed before analysis and publication. 

Lynn Stewart-Taylor will be leading two online sessions with a small group of you (between 4-6 people), please sign up below if you are interested in sharing your story. We cannot guarantee that you will be invited to the session depending on the amount of interest.
