HOPE PROGRAMME FOR LONG COVID

NHS CHARITIES TOGETHER & UHCW CHARITY

My artwork came about after it was mentioned by the Hope Programme facilitators at one of our Hope cafes.

I am not an artist and have never been great at drawing even my stickmen are laughable.

However, I love to sing and go on adventures.

After having COVID it has taken me a long time to get back into singing and get back into controlling my breathing enough to get through a song however I have slowly been building this stamina and the recording is one of my most recent attempts to get back into singing.

The photos are all from places that I have visited during the few months I have been on the course. It is basically a mix of celebrating me for who I am, happy times and also for feeling grateful for what we have and who we meet along the way.

So thank you to Hope and everyone I have come across on my journey.
