Manx National Heritage is continuing to document and record the experiences of the coronavirus pandemic on Island.
The project 'Collecting COVID Isle of Man' was launched in May last year.
The aim is to document and record this extraordinary period in our history by collecting images, first-hand experiences and objects that reflect Island life during the COVID pandemic. ‘Collecting COVID Isle of Man’ will enable Manx National Heritage to understand and document the human dimension of the pandemic and will enable future generations to learn about and understand our experience.
Katie King, Community Outreach Officer for Manx National Heritage explains more: “We had a very strong response to this project when we launched last year, and to date we have collected over 150 individual submissions, including nearly 500 photographs. The first-hand accounts we have received have also been extremely moving.
"We are asking the community to share with us personal photographs and accounts which reflect their experiences of living through this extraordinary period and also to reflect how Island life has changed."
If you would like to contribute to this record of our history for future generations, please email your photographs and accounts to collect@mnh.im.
