Gravita's Charity of the year: Long Covid Kids
We know what it’s like to have your world turned upside down by Long Covid; to feel broken, afraid for your child’s future, and exhausted by the constant battle for inclusive education, medical treatment and answers.
This is what has driven Long Covid Kids to achieve amazing things as a small team of volunteers powered by passion and determination to give children with Long Covid a better future. We are proud that Long Covid Kids (LCK) is helping thousands of families navigate the confusing world of medical jargon and special needs services to give their children the best possible care and hope of recovery.
We are proud to have a seat at the table where it matters – with the NHS, Researchers, World Health Organisation, UK governments – to advocate for our children and young people. We are proud to see smiles on the faces of young people enjoying the connection our support groups provide.
Why Gravita is supporting Long Covid Kids
Long Covid Kids was nominated by the Gravita team to be our chosen charity. Gravita's team member Jana Touati has been supported by Long Covid Kids for the last two years after her son Samir become diagnosed with Long Covid.
