Image The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic is on everyone’s minds. The rules are changing over time until the pandemic is in check. Every person and each household will experience the effects differently. Some will cope well, others won't. For this reason, we felt it was important to understand the full impact of the pandemic. Long-term, we want to understand how people are feeling and coping with the impact of COVID-19 . We share our results as widely as possible and encourage researchers to use our data. Our results can help support future research and inform and influence health policy. CovidLife We invited people across the UK, over the age of 18, to take part in the CovidLife survey.
