COVID 19 Resources
The news and regulations around Covid-19 change quickly and we recommend the BBC Website for up-to-date and reliable Covid information.
The NHS Track and Trace app is used for 'checking in' to restaurants, cafes and other public amenities so you can be contacted if somebody who visited at the same time as you tests positive for Covid-19.
It also has a bluetooth alert system that connects to other app users and monitors their declared Covid status.
These are sites, apps and feeds that either we use ourselves or which have been recommended by previous students. The quality of feeds changes rapidly and what works for one person won't necessarily be useful for another, so please see these as a starting point rather than a definitive list.
