COVID-19 Health Champions

COVID-19 Health Champions are a network of proactive community leaders, local people, groups and organisations that have come together with the Council, to stay informed about the latest advice and guidance on COVID-19. 

Message from the Mayor of Bedford Borough, Dave Hodgson

Role of the COVID-19 Health Champion

We will send regular emails to COVID-19 Health Champions updating them on the latest COVID-19 messages and health and wellbeing information.

It is the role of the COVID-19 Health Champion to share this information with friends, family, colleagues, groups and community, however they choose.

By sharing clear information you, your friends, family and community can make sense of the latest facts, make informed choices, and help minimise the risk of the virus spreading.

COVID-19 Health Champions are not required to give advice but any requests for advice can be sent through to us via our dedicated email address.

COVID-19 Health Champions will be invited to attend informal, virtual drop-in sessions where they have the opportunity to feed back from the community about the positive things that are happening and ask questions.
