‘Combatting the negative impact of Covid 19 continues to be a focus for communities, as they design interventions to address loneliness, isolation, depression, poverty, debt and stress. We are delighted to fund this group of BCPP projects. Some are strengthening and building on previous programmes and others are starting their first BCPP journey. We look forward to supporting them as all as they explore  health inequalities with some of the most vulnerable members of our society.’

Kathy Martin, Strategic Impact Manager
