COVID 19: Easy Read information for people with learning disability & autism

NHS England Learning Disability and Autism Forum has been working with Public Health England to make some easy read information about Coronavirus (sometimes called COVID-19.) It includes a funky rap video about one of the most important things you can do to prevent the spread of the virus: wash your hands.

Coronavirus is a new illness that can affect your lungs and your breathing. This easy read information tells you about 5 things that everyone can do to help stop you and other people getting Coronavirus.

Read the easy read information about Coronavirus.

Watch The Hand Washing Rap from Purple All Stars. The Purple All Stars, from St Albans, are a group of people with learning disabilities who provide powerful health promotion messages through music and drama

Or view this easy read poster from Photosymbols.
