“We’ve both been left unemployed…before, we were hanging on and now we’ve just fallen…the Coronavirus, it’s just pushed us over the edge”
Lucy Graney lives with her husband Will and their two young children in Salford, U.K. Before the pandemic she was a sling librarian, consultant and a prolific content creator publishing on Facebook and Instagram.
Both Lucy and Will recently made the move to self-employment which meant they weren’t eligible for any government grants to sustain their businesses through lockdown.
In this postcard, sent on 11th June, she reflects on family life in isolation, being Autistic and the challenges that their current situation presents as lockdown is lifted.
