Share your Covid-19 Story - Survey Results
01 March 2021
Many of our NF community speak of difficulties accessing support throughout the crisis and adapting to the varying changing restrictions. In order to understand this better we as members of the Embracing Complexity Coalition want to hear from you. The coalition is made up of over 50 organisations who are all working together to coordinate campaigning and research focussed on neurodevelopmental conditions (NDCs), such as Neurofibromatosis. Embracing Complexity is very grateful for your participation in taking part in their survey.
Having shared your experiences of Covid-19 – whether positive or negative, you helped to develop recommendations for reducing the negative impact on people with Neurofibromatosis. Ensuring that moving forward, in the event of future lockdowns & prolonged social distancing, we can protect those that are vulnerable, as well as making sure that any positive experiences of some people with Neurofibromatosis in lockdown are not reversed as society begins to open up.
Learning from lockdown to support those who think differently.
