LET'S FIGHT COVID TOGETHER
LONG-COVID SUPPORT
Many people suffering with long-COVID have been unable to leave their homes for months. Our online physical therapy programme provides practical support to those still struggling with COVID symptoms, without having to leave the comfort of your own home.
We urgently need your help to raise £250,000 so that we can give away this programme to long-COVID sufferers for free. Every pound you donate today will make a lasting impact on someone’s life tomorrow.
WHAT WE KNOW SO FAR
LONG-COVID
Although most people infected with COVID-19 will recover within a few weeks, a growing proportion of people are still living with symptoms more than 3 months on. This syndrome is known as long-COVID and can affect anybody who has come into contact with the virus, no matter how mild their infection was to begin with. Some of the symptoms – fatigue, headaches, shortness of breath and memory loss – can leave lasting detrimental impacts on people’s lives and health.
OUR MISSION
The programme was created by Professor Greg Whyte OBE – former Director of Research at the British Olympic medical Centre, Director of Science at the English Institute of Sport, Professor of Applied Sport & Exercise Science.
“Our mission is simple: give every person in the UK free access to this programme to support their return to health and fitness following COVID-19 infection, and minimise long-COVID effects on the body.”
