Covid resources in accessible formats
We have listed some organisations and websites that have accessible covid information in other formats and languages. This includes links to easy read booklets and British Sign Language (BSL) content. These resources are not specifically for people living with cancer but you may find them helpful.
You can also find our cancer-specific information in a range of different formats.
Covid resources for communities
We have listed some websites that provide information on how coronavirus has impacted certain communities.
- Race Equality Foundation has information about risk factors of covid and the impact on Black and minority ethnic communities.
