Supporting the Sector Through the COVID-19 (Coronavirus) Pandemic
The Wheel is dedicated to supporting our members, and the wider sector, through the unfolding COVID-19 crisis. We are working hard to ensure the needs and responsibilities of our sector are being recognised by the Government, and we remain confident that we will all pull together in this time of national crisis to ensure the most vulnerable among us are protected and that our important social missions remain pointed forwards.
Please see our COVID-19 information hub for full updates on the impact of COVID-19 on the sector, and how The Wheel is responding to it.
