Covid, The Vaccine and Me

Covid, the Vaccine and Me has been inspired by the views of children and young people surrounding the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic and the subsequent vaccine.
Throughout the pandemic we have heard many views and voices from a wide cross section of community about their experiences of COVID and its impact. What has not been audible are children’s voices.
This video provides an opportunity to increase awareness of and give voice to young people’s feelings during the pandemic.
The video will also be offered as a resource that schools and youth organisations can use as a catalyst for discussion or lessons around COVID.
With thanks to students and teachers from Wallsend Jubilee Primary School and John Spence Community School for their participation.
The artwork was created by students of Wallsend Jubilee Primary School and the photography was provided by students of John Spence Secondary School. The photographs were taken by them as a direct response to the pandemic.
This video was created by artist and writer Alex Woolley.
