For 3 days we've shown that the case for ventilation & safer environments is unanswerable. After 3 years of Covid, it’s clear that the Govt isn’t going to do anything. So here, for the Covid Pledge Week of Action, are 6 things we can do #CovidSafetyPledge #CovidPledgeAction (1/8)

First, ask to see the managers of the businesses you visit regularly and ask them to sign up to the Covid pledge. Here is a leaflet explaining why it makes sense for them to do so: covidpledge.uk/s/clean-air-in… #CovidSafetyPledge #CovidPledgeAction (2/8)

Second, if you are a parent or work for/in a school, ask your school to ensure they have adequate ventilation. Here is a detailed resource from @CleanAirClassrm explaining why and what they should be doing. covidpledge.uk/s/Clean-Air-Cl… #CovidSafetyPledge #CovidPledgeAction (3/8)

Third, as a Trades Unionist, approach your employer and ask them to sign up to the Covid Pledge – and make sure your national union supports the pledge. Here is a leaflet explaining why the Pledge is a core Trades Union issue: covidpledge.uk/s/Leaflet-pdf.… #CovidSafetyPledge (4/8)

Fourth, get together with others locally, arrange a meeting, form a local ‘Pledge Coalition’, consider leafletting & other actions to promote the Pledge. If you email us at info[@]covidpledge[.]uk we can provide contacts and resources #CovidSafetyPledge #CovidPledgeAction (5/8)

Fifth, audit the ventilation in your workplace. Here is our Guide to carrying out such an audit: covidpledge.uk/s/Covid-Safety… #CovidSafetyPledge #CovidPledgeAction (6/8)

Sixth, consider building your own air filtration unit – a Corsi-Rosenthal box. It’s easy. It isn’t terribly expensive. Here is a guide from @ShivenTaneja showing how to do it. Also a video: #CovidSafetyPledge #CovidPledgeAction (7/8)

There is so much we can do to make ourselves and others safe. And if each of us did just one thing, think what a difference it could make! ☺️
