One of my concerns about the new normal is the need to face coverings as I tend to breathe through my mouth. Fortunately I'm working at home at the moment so it is not a problem but when I do return to work which is in a hospital everyone has to wear face masks. This past week I've helped to develop a badge for staff to wear if they can't wear a face mask due to breathing problems. Just wondering do other people with CP also have the same concerns?

Your post puzzles me. Surely, if everyone covers both nose and mouth, then all will breathe in and out through cloth? And if anything, breathing through the mouth should be easier?
Plus, if you can work from home, surely you should not be asked, and not agree, to go into a building to do the same work?
Work From Home has proved that commuting and polluting by office workers is wilful waste and unnecessary crowding of others on public transport or roads.
It also gives equality of opportunity for some disabled people or their carers, for whom commuting time and being away from home are an unfair unnecessary burden. -
i don’t like the new normal it very unsettling
