I'm taking part in The Great Bristol Buskathon

Katie, Claire and Matt's Buskathon · 18 December 2020

Story

Hi, we're Katie, Claire and Matt and we're taking part in Southmead hospital Buskathon to raise money for their research into long Covid.

There is still a lot unknow about Long Covid, but so far Researchers at Southmead hospital have gained new insight into what challenges patients may face in their recovery and how to prepare for those needs

All money raised will go towards continuing to find answers to all the unanswered questions  about long Covid. 

If you would like to find out more about the research being done into long Covid at Southmead Hospital, you might like to listen to this podcast, featuring David Arnold who is one of the lead researchers at Southmead Hospital

We've recorded three songs - 'Say You'll Be There', 'Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire' and 'Merry Xmas Everybody' - and we've also thrown in a song which Katie and Claire recorded during the first lockdown-  The Prayer.

Usually, we would be busking at Cribbs Causeway with a collection bucket, but sadly that's not possible this year- so we've made these recordings instead. We hope you enjoy them!

All donations will be really appreciated! Please help us by sharing our videos. Thank you so much!
