Join the fight for justice
We’d strongly advise anyone who has suffered a bereavement due to Covid-19 to join the Covid-19 Bereaved Families for Justice group if you have not already sone so, as we know that pressure of numbers will be a significant factor in causing the Government to launch the Inquiry.
