Peer support for Long Covid

You're not alone - join our network of members with Long Covid.

Julie talks about the importance of having a Long Covid community.

In her story, Julie shares her Long Covid journey; the challenges she has faced and her insights in to supporting healthcare professionals with Long Covid back to work. 

RCN members can join our closed facebook group to speak to others with Long Covid. We also take learning from this group's experiences back in to our ongoing work on Long Covid as it affects our members. 

To join, just go to our facebook page and click 'request to join'. Make sure you answer the joining questions, providing your membership number, so we can admit you to the group. We have community guidelines - have a read before you post. Saying a bit about yourself is a good way to start a conversation. You will be welcomed by your peers including our trained member moderators. 

Julie's podcast is also a great source of support. Listen here.
