Launch of NHS Test and Trace
HM Government has now launched the NHS Test and Trace service to help reduce the spread of coronavirus and save lives.
To help support these key messages, there are now a range of materials available on the Campaign Resource Centre. You can download any of these resources to use for your workplace and help stop the spread of COVID-19.
You are also able to provide feedback on the resources by becoming a Campaign Resource Centre volunteer to help improve future resources that are created. Contact the team PHE via the link below.

Carers Week
Carers Week is an annual campaign to raise awareness of caring, highlight the challenges unpaid carers face and recognise the contribution they make to families and communities throughout the UK. It also helps people who don’t think of themselves as having caring responsibilities to identify as carers and access much-needed support.
This year (8th – 14th June), people across the country are continuing to face new challenges as a result of the coronavirus outbreak. Many people are taking on more caring responsibilities for their relatives and friends who are disabled, ill or older and who need support.
They need to be recognised for the difficulties they are experiencing, respected for all they are doing, and provided with information, support and understanding.
