Founder and CEO of LCK Sammie Mcfarland "Today is an incredible testimony to all the family's children and volunteers from our organisation who have worked tirelessly throughout the pandemic to raise awareness for children living with Long Covid who have been ignored.

The Prime Minister wasn’t able to be there due to “diary constraints” but the guardian has promised he will get them.
Long Covid is a preventable condition. We can prevent it by avoiding infection.

Everyday children are in school without improved indoor air quality they are

At risk.

We have CYP joining our support services who are developing LC after a 2nd/3rd infection, even through they didn’t develop #LongCovid after their 1st infection.
We asked the Prime Minister for his urgent attention and support.

Our pack is about post viral illness that has been ignored & that we believe may be triggered by #COVID19 but that needs more research.

We were pleased to work with @PandasPans @FNDHopeUK @MEAssociation @MastCellAction @UKPoTS #PIMS
to highlight these conditions.
