Are you a parent or carer finding it difficult to make ends meet?
COVID-19 has swept across the globe, causing suffering for millions. But it’s not just the virus that’s the problem…
The lockdown has seen the closure of businesses, local services and schools, causing economic hardship and stress. We know that families living with children face particular challenges, especially when they are on low incomes and cannot access child-care. If you’re one of them, we’d love to hear from you.
We’re a research team from the universities of York and Birmingham, looking for the experiences of families and carers who have children under the age of 19. Leave us a diary entry, audio or video message about how you’re coping. Tell us about your frustrations and worries! Let us know how daily life could be improved for you!
Our aim is to understand the challenges you face, gather evidence of the impact of COVID-19 on families, and help policymakers make better informed decisions.
If you can help us do that, or would like more information, do get in touch.
