Banji Alexander’s book gently tackles Covid-19 vaccine hesitancy in BAME community and promotes children’s mental health
The London mayor, Sadiq Khan, has congratulated a primary school teacher who wrote a children’s book aimed at gently tackling Covid-19 vaccine hesitancy in the black and minority ethnic community and promoting children’s mental health.
Banji Alexander, who teaches at a school in south-east London with a large number of students and staff from minority ethnic backgrounds, started writing Lockdown Looms: Reggie’s Birthday Party, a book detailing a child’s experience of the pandemic, during the second lockdown.
