#LeftInLockdown - Parent carers’ experiences of lockdown

This report was produced by a coalition of more than 70 UK charities, set up to campaign to improve disabled children’s services. They set up an online survey to assess the impact of the coronavirus pandemic and lockdown on families with disabled children across the UK. The results are intended to assist government understanding and plans around support for disabled children both now and beyond lockdown. They outline the survey distribution and the breakdown of the (4074) respondents’ demographics, before relaying the qualitative and quantitative results. Questions covered perceptions of access to information, how families and children are coping, how much support they feel they are getting across a range of domains. It ends with a list of recommendations to government, focused on the ‘here and now’ (noting at the time of the survey – May 2020 – the UK was still very much in lockdown).
