Corona Virus Survival Guide

“I wish it need not have happened in my time,” said Frodo. 

“So do I,” said Gandalf, “and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."

Many things unite us in life: music, creativity, love, loss and tragedy. Unfortunately, in recent times it has been tragedy and chaos that has united us globally. The coronavirus has affected us all, no matter who we are, where we are from - it has not discriminated against races, ages, backgrounds, experiences - it has been brutal and we are all suffering from the same things. We are united. 

With this in mind, knowing how important it is to stay mentally healthy, we asked people in our different programs to share how they are coping with lockdown & coronavirus. We asked some of the PFCF programs to get in touch with their pupils and staff, encouraging them to send a photo or video of how they are keeping mentally healthy and positive during these trying times. These photos and videos will make up a ‘Coronavirus Survival Guide’, which we hope to show globally to inspire others to stay as positive as possible in these difficult circumstances.
