Abstract
Long-Covid symptoms and increased psychological distress have been recognised to have had a significant longterm impact on those who were hospitalised due to Covid-19. To address the needs of this population, the Lothian Mental Health after Covid-19 Hospitalisation (MACH) Service developed and delivered a pilot group intervention which offered psychoeducation and a space to connect with others. The present article seeks to evaluate this group intervention, learning from its successes and challenges to better inform future interventions for this population.
