Last minute spruce up before the Day of Reflection. ❤️ #DayOfReflection

It is especially heartbreaking to see the dedications for children... ❤️

On World Book Day, we're remembering powerful contributions about the Wall from our Chair, @franfd.bsky.social, and journalist @honigsbaum.bsky.social to "When This Is Over - Reflections on an Unequal Pandemic"... ❤️ #WorldBookDay

Fundraising alert! Before our Day of Reflection event on Sunday, we have had a delivery of beautiful rollerball gel pens which will be available on the day or that can be ordered from us in exchange for a donation. (Details in thread.) ❤️

A perfect day for painting - but the volunteers (seven in person, the rest online) were at another meeting with the DCMS about the future of our beautiful memorial. ❤️

It's not only paint brushes that we use! The volunteers are working hard to spruce up the wall for the Day of Reflection on Sunday. ❤️ #DayOfReflection

An upcoming talk by @davidtollerton.bsky.social on why there aren't more covid memorials. He makes many excellent points in this article. We would add that it takes will and consistent effort - someone has to do the work. ❤️

Dydd Gŵyl Dewi hapus! ❤️ #StDavidsDay

At last the wall was dry enough for us to catch up on some dedications! It's an honour to personalise hearts for our loved ones lost to covid. We will never forget them. ❤️

We have a special panel for the children on our Wall. We will never forget them. ❤️

We have new bins along the Wall! ❤️

If your loved one died from covid-19 in the UK and you would like their photo included in our display on the Wall on Sunday March 29th (5th anniversary of the Wall), please send it to us by this Friday February 27th. We automatically display photos sent previously; no need to resubmit. ❤️

❤️❤️❤️ #Tuesday

The volunteers love a theme. ❤️

Remembering those in unmarked graves. This is beautiful. ❤️

#CovidMemorial Thank you to those who are doing everything to keep those who were lost & are continuing to be lost remembered.

Volunteer support cat Scooby wishes you a wonderful #caturday... ❤️

A walk along our beautiful wall before the rain comes. ❤️

Every heart is individually hand-painted. No templates.. no stencils... The wonky sections of the wall help to remind us of the uniqueness of every heart, reflecting the uniqueness of the person it represents. ❤️

On Sunday March 8th, we will be observing the Covid-19 National Day of Reflection quietly at our beautiful memorial in central London. The team will be there from 11.00-3.00, with paint and pens available for anyone who would like to help us with the work of maintaining the Wall.

"This Lent, I am not giving something up. I am making room - for grief, for memory..." - Rev Lavender Kelley ❤️ #ShroveTuesday

It's #WorldHippoDay. We love this sculpture by Gillie and Marc. ❤️

Thinking of all of you who are missing someone on this Valentine's Day. ❤️ #ValentinesDay

Four of our volunteers are widowed. Today, for Valentine's Day, we laid roses for their spouses at the wall. ❤️🌹 #ValentinesDay

We're longing for drier and sunnier days! ❤️😭🌧 #ThrowbackThursday

We can assure you that to the families of the dead represented on our Wall, who were unable to be with their dying loved ones because they obeyed rules made by and then cynically flouted by those in power, it was not just 'a bit of cake'. It was devastating. Breathtaking insensitivity by Madeley.

Anyone who thinks what's happening is the worst political scandal this century, in this country should take a stroll down to the Covid Memorial Wall.

One of the volunteers spotted this beautiful photograph recently at a doctor's office - hearts follow us. ❤️

The 2026 Covid-19 Day of Reflection is on Sunday March 8th. This national date offers people around the country a chance to join together in commemoration of those who lost their lives to Covid-19. ❤️ #DayOfReflection #DoR

Really looking forward to having some warmer and drier days...  🤞🤞❤️

My photo for today, 28th January 2026, morning view of the National Covid Memorial Wall, with the count banner up.

😞 The #Covid victims. 🇬🇧

For whom the bell tolls... ❤️ #JohnDonne

The volunteers were at the wall today, but were unfortunately unable to write dedications. The wall was soaked - Portland stone is porous, and seems to act like a sponge sometimes. You can see the glisten of water below where a volunteer ran her finger over a heart. Hoping for drier weather soon!❤️

We're told it's #PuzzleDay - so we're remembering this special Secret Santa present from last month. ❤️ #NationalPuzzleDay

Stability Boss have rolled out a 'real red' marker - there'll be no stopping us! ❤️ #RedWed #WallsOnWednesday

For those who have started following us recently, you may not be aware that we have an online tribute site where you can upload photos of your loved ones and leave a dedication to them - here's the link. ❤️

We will not forget. ❤️ #HolocaustRemembranceDay 🕯

Having been deprived of proper mourning rituals during the worst days of the pandemic, all over the world people are hungry for commemoration. ❤️ #MemorialMonday

We will never forget them. ❤️ #MemorialMonday

Happy Burns Night from all the volunteers! ❤️ #BurnsNight #RobertBurns

A mini-shrine at the Wall. People often leave tokens for their lost loved ones - flowers, candles, stones... ❤️

Today we had the sad task of updating the number of covid dead. ❤️

The Christmas lights are down! ❤️

It's Big Coats on and Hoods Up at the Wall today, but those Christmas lights are finally coming down! 🥶🌧

This is beautiful.
