Hi everyone,

My name is Alex Burton and I'm a researcher at University College London. We are interested in speaking to people with a sensory impairment or physical disability that affects their mobility or motor skills about how the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted mental health, wellbeing and access to support. The interview will last around 45 minutes and take place via video or telephone call. More information about the study can be found here: (www.covidsocialstudy.org/qual-study) or if you would like to register your interest in taking part you can contact Alex by email: (a.burton@ucl.ac.uk) or sign up here: (www.tinyurl.com/C19socialstudy) and a researcher will be in touch. Thanks for taking the time to read this post and I look forward to hearing from you! Alex

    Just for the record my Mental Health didn't suffer from the unnecessary Covid panics (because we are now doing what I said we should do from the start). My only issue was the number of times people here and on FB people castigated me for telling the truth and predicting accurately what would and would not happen with Covid in it's multiplicity.
