Proud to share our new #ForThoseWhoCant fundraising campaign.

Long Covid often strips people of the energy and capacity to advocate or fundraise for themselves. This campaign is about solidarity — giving friends, families and communities practical ways to step in and help.

[Long Covid Support @long_covid]

Today we’re launching #ForThoseWhoCant, our new fundraising campaign.

It’s about making fundraising more accessible, with ideas and guidance for friends, family, and loved ones who want to support our work.

Standing outside the Covid-19 Inquiry, we want to say thank you to all our supporters. People living with #LongCovid still need urgent support — please donate if you can to help us continue our work.

[Long Covid Support @long_covid]

An important message from @NJLR, our Chair of Trustees, who has been in attendance at the Covid Inquiry today.
We wanted to take this moment to sincerely thank you for the support you have shown over the past few weeks, particularly in relation to our work with the Inquiry (1/)

It’s the first night of #Chanukah.
As a proud British Jew, lighting our chanukiah tonight feels like an act of hope and defiance. In the shadow of the appalling Jew-hatred attack in Sydney, we still kindle light. We are here. We endure. #Channukah #Hannukah #Chanukah

[Nigel Rothband @NJLR]

Great energy at this week’s APPG meeting for @long_covid — constructive discussion, powerful lived experience, and real commitment to driving change. Grateful to everyone pushing for better care, research, and recognition particularly @JoPlattLeigh. #LongCovid #APPG

[Nigel Rothband @NJLR]

Proud of the impact our community continues to make. Your emails helped secure an exceptional MP and Peer turnout — proof that lived experience drives real political attention. Thank you. #OIA #LongCovid

[Long Covid Support @long_covid]

1/ We were thrilled to see 50+ MPs and Peers at the Overlapping Illness Alliance drop-in last week.

Thanks to your emails, nearly 80% of MPs got an invite, one even said it was the most letters they'd ever had about an event. Your support genuinely made a difference ⭐️

[Nigel Rothband @NJLR]

Important conversations in Parliament yesterday. We’ll keep working with partners across the Overlapping Illness Alliance to push for the research, recognition and support people living with Long Covid deserve.

[Long Covid Support @long_covid]

Yesterday our Chair of Trustees @NJLR joined partners from the Overlapping Illness Alliance in Parliament, urging MPs to take urgent action on the research and support needed to meet the Long Covid crisis.

At the #Covid19Inquiry supporting Mike Ormerod, who is giving evidence on behalf of @long_covid, highlighting the devastating impact on individuals and families. #LongCovid.

[Nigel Rothband @NJLR]

After today’s #CovidInquiry report, I discussed with @charlotterlynch from @LBCNews what it confirms: people with #LongCovid were failed.
We need urgent action: proper surveillance, specialist care, clear messaging, & long-term research funding.

[Nigel Rothband @NJLR]

A real pleasure to interview the brilliant #AndyWilman for @CWBookshop on the first stop of his tour celebrating the release of Mr Wilman’s Motoring Adventure. A must-read — and the perfect #Christmas gift — for any #TopGear or #GrandTour fan.

[Nigel Rothband @NJLR]

This #TrusteesWeek I want to say a huge thank you to my fellow trustees at @long_covid
Your care, wisdom & commitment inspire me every day. It’s a privilege to serve alongside people so dedicated to supporting those living with Long Covid.

As part of the @Fanalysisapp @ManCity team, it was a joy and pleasure to discuss and celebrate the return to form of @PhilFoden on @SkySportsNews earlier today. Four goal involvements in four matches, an enthusiasm for the game and looking like a match winner. #MCFC #ManCity
