What will participants have to do?

Where will the money raised go?

This support includes:

• Providing counselling for doctors and nurses to help protect
  their mental health and to help them process what they are dealing with.
• Offering bereavement support for families who have lost loved ones.
• Providing hospitals with electronic tablets so patients with Coronavirus can keep in contact with loved ones.
• Supporting the long-term recovery of the NHS from the impact of the crisis.
