‘Analysis of the polling and other attitudes data has led to warnings that the spirit of unity fostered by the fight against Covid-19 may be dissipating.’

Now is not the time to abandon Asset-Based Community Development (#ABCD) approaches in favor of deficit based relief efforts. Now is the time to accelerate ABCD on every street. https://t.co/ZS6KfYRxZm

Another consideration for vulnerable people is that they may not be online, so a distanced chat, a note through the letterbox or a knock on the door could make all the difference! #LonelinessAwarenessWeek

['Apart but not Alone' - UWE C19 Research Project @ApartAlone]

Our study is highlighting the impact of #covid19 on the older population. As one interviewee explained: "My neighbour is very aware that people are stuck in their homes - the other day she said 'I could die here and never leave the house again'" #LonelinessAwarenessWeek

What positive changes would you like to see continue beyond #lockdown? Has your community changed for the better as a result of the #covid19 crisis?

['Apart but not Alone' - UWE C19 Research Project @ApartAlone]

Riding the wave of our latest publication, just a quick reminder that there is plenty more still to come! We are still conducting participant interviews and survey 2 will close for analysis shortly, so watch this space for more output. #covid19 #communityspirit #UKlockdown
