[Anna Evans @AnnaVEvans]

Thank you to @MayorofLondon @SadiqKhan for the opportunity to speak about the huge sacrifices and challenges faced by people with cystic fibrosis in the last year.

We talked about the impact of #COVID19, inequalities, and the support we need now and in the future.

[Sadiq Khan @SadiqKhan]

We might be facing the same storm, but we’re not all in the same boat.

Charities have been doing huge amounts of work to support older, disabled & clinically vulnerable Londoners during this pandemic.

Today I met with them to talk about what more City Hall can do to help them.
