The impact of lockdown caused a deterioration in mental health in residents at Nottinghamshire, with many in self-isolation due to exhibiting symptoms. This, coupled with the reduction of GP and mental health services had further exacerbated their conditions. Many were unable to access the training and education they once did, as this had been paused due to COVID-19.
LandAid’s £2,700 grant covered ‘trauma informed’ care training, food and toiletries, and indoor books and games for the residential homes.
