A year down the line, and it’s our children who are arguably suffering the most as a result of action taken under the Coronavirus Act 2020.
Lockdowns, school closures, and now the tyranny of coerced mask-wearing for secondary students along with testing and social distancing across all ages has hugely negative implications for the long-term physical, mental, and emotional well-being of the next generation.
For those young people facing abuse — either personally or as witnesses to domestic violence — the situation has been particularly grave with school staff unable to identify those at risk during homeschooling and access to wider care services widely curtailed under the Act.
It may be impossible to ever fully measure the developmental damage done to our young people and this is why we need to fight for the repeal of all measures in the Act restricting their basic human rights.
Our guest today is Liz Cole from parents’ group UsForThem which is campaigning for a return to normality for children across the UK.
Among questions we will be exploring with Liz are…
- Just how deeply are our children suffering?
- What can we do to challenge the policymakers?
- How can parents fight back at local level?
Join us at 12:00 as part of our Coronavirus Act series for this important discussion about securing a better future for our children.
