COVID-19 UK community films: social media toolkit

In late 2020, Medical Aid Films created a COVID-19 animation providing valuable information for communities in the UK.


Although the UK is slowly easing out of lockdown, COVID-19 has not gone away. It’s still important to have information on medical rights, protection and self-care strategies during this time of great uncertainty. 


In 2021, with thanks to the Postcode Lottery funding, we have been able to translate these films into a further 6 community languages.


As well as English, Punjabi, Urdu and Arabic, the film is now also translated into Tamil, Turkish, Farsi, Gujarati, Bengali, and Somali.



To help communities access the support they’re entitled to, we need you to get involved. We have developed some quick and easy social media posts below for you to share on your channels.


The UK is opening up but COVID still poses a risk. Thanks to @PostcodeLottery, @MAFFilmsForLife translated their COVID-19 films into 6 new languages: Tamil, Turkish, Gujarati, Somali, Farsi and Bengali.
