Conversations

This is a series of short videocasts and podcasts to explore some of the issues that people with personalised care are facing during the Covid-19 crisis. 


The reason we’re producing them is to hear directly from people about: 
How their lives are being affected 
How they’re finding ways to cope
Any top tips they might have that might be useful for other people  

We hope you find them interesting and useful.
