Covid-19 inquiry in Bristol to talk about pandemic experiences

The UK Covid-19 Inquiry team are visiting Galleries Bristol today and tomorrow (11 to 12 February) for people to talk in-person about any pandemic experiences.

The event, being labelled #EveryStoryMatters, will run between 10:30 and 5:30 on Tuesday and Wednesday.

The idea is for people to share their stories with the Inquiry in-person, who say they it will help inform their recommendations to make things better in the future.

The group says some of these events are targeted for specific groups of people affected by the pandemic, while others are open to the general public.

We are told Baroness Hallett will not be able to attend all events, she will join selected events from time to time.

There will be listening hubs, as well as quiet spaces where you will be able to complete a form with or without assistance.

The Inquiry will be visiting more places across the UK later in 2024.
