2022 Pulling together:Our lockdown stories in pictures

We couldn’t have got through the last two years without each other. Even when we could not be
together, we could pull together; even if, at the height of lockdown, that meant no more than sharing
with our communities a captured magical moment from the brief – and often solitary – daily outdoor

exercise we were permitted.
NFA members and residents, of course, did much more than that: food deliveries, telephone befriending, chats through windows, checking up on each other, leaving shopping on doorsteps.
This year’s NFA photography competition offers some intimate glimpses of how our members’ staff and residents weathered the pandemic storm. They show that, despite everything, there were many moments when sunshine broke through the clouds.
