However, 41% reported that they did not have the information they needed about support in the community during the Coronavirus pandemic. 38% indicated that changes to health care services was the area they found it hardest to get information about. Those who needed or used a health care service for something not related to Covid-19 during the pandemic experienced disruption/changes to service due to the pandemic.
