As an #OccupationalTherapist I was dismayed with #Disregard to my reports of visual changes at #LongCovid clinic- No advice, signposting etc No specific knowledge of #LongCovid known at the opticians either. Anecdotal reports of dry eye too, that's important and treatment

Dear @SteveGFord @LaylaMoran asks what is happening to support workers with #LongCovid below.
We would love to hear more from @theRCOT on this please.
We hope you saw #LongCovidAwarenessDay posts and @KeyWorkerPetUK ?

Despite explicitly acknowledging the need to help people with long-term illnesses and disabilities, the Chancellor had nothing to offer the 2 million people living with Long Covid in the UK, many of whom find it impossible to βget back to workβ.

We would like to thank you all for the wonderful messages of support. People travelled from all over the U.K. to support us in person, and we had a huge online following too. We are now taking a break for the rest of the week, and we will be back on Monday. Long Covid Strong πͺ
