MasksForScotland

With the help from donations from the public & businesses, and an army of volunteers, we made over 600 deliveries, thus sending 1,100,000 PPE items to frontline community staff across Scotland. THANK YOU ALL!

@jasonleitch Get well soon

Well, it finally got me for the first time. Global and Scottish cases are rising. Be careful everyone. I’ll be following the recommended guidance and hoping for a short, easy course. I’m very glad I’m fully vaccinated.

'Shameful and toxic': MPs demand answers over billions of PPE going up in smoke. Glad ours were all CE marked & with certificates. news.sky.com/story/shameful…

Health & social care worker access to FFP3 masks now allowed, during the transition period. 4m ago WHO updated recommendations on use of FFP2/FFP3 masks in light of the increased transmission of Omicron variant. Well done @scotgov though it took 2 years. sehd.scot.nhs.uk/dl/DL(2022)10.…

Yup

Government paid firm linked to Tory peer £122m for PPE bought for £46m . This is disgraceful. We could have helped source CE certified PPE for no fee. We got ours through Chinese medical and importer friends. theguardian.com/politics/2022/…

@JFBUS10 @jasonleitch @thetimesscot And GPs have suffered from too….

@jasonleitch @thetimesscot This is the kind of gaslighting and misinformation school staff have suffered from.

For those responding angrily because of this headline from @thetimesscot please listen to the interview on Radio 4 at 1.10 today and hear what I ACTUALLY said, then maybe be kinder. I was asked if I thought Edinburgh could have Hogmanay in April!!!! bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…

We were right. Thank you all for allowing us to provide FFP3 masks to our NHS community staff during Spring & Winter outbreaks. Your generosity saved lives & ill health amongst our NHS staff. Covid: Masks upgrade significantly cuts infection risk bbc.co.uk/news/health-57…

So well deserved! Edith and her team doubled our funds at a key moment and took us past our target. So this award rightly recognises the hard work that went into that night. Well done@edibow

@Glasgow_Times @StEnochCentre @HeraldEvents What an honour. Thank you. Such great women in the finals, proud to have been amongst them. This award is for all those who made @Masks4Scotland possible. I was just a small part of a huge Scotland-wide community effort! Thanks #SWOTY and thanks to all who helped.

In total we had 75 drivers delivering over the year. Well done folks, could not have done it without you. You were crucial

We sincerely thank all donors, the public, businesses, volunteers and all celebrities that came together to stand up for frontline staff in the community in the fight against Coronavirus.

Really grateful to Karen Donaldson for delivering some residual masks to over 5 different places in this really cold weather. Thank you Karen!
