    This Report provides the findings of the Rapid Learning Initiative with regards to the transmission of Covid-19 into and within Care Homes during the first surge of the pandemic, and makes recommendations on the way forward prior to further potential surges of infection.

The information below is supplementary to the full Rapid Learning Initiative Report, highlighting the importance of those voices and the personal stories.
