Take a read of our blog on our PPE efforts to date supporting Joanne Doherty and @PieceMakers1. A list of donators of acetate and a list of where the shields were delivered to us included. By 23rd of April over 1500 face shields had been supplied. 💪 jciderry.org.uk/working-better…

Thank you to @TerraMarNetwork for donating acetate shields for face shields. Leaving a wipe in the packaging when they were collected was a lovely touch 😊. These have become masks for Longfield, Clarendon Medical, mencap & others through Piece Makers. #ppeforheroes #JCIDerryPPE

Thank you to Holy Cross College #Strabane. They donated 1500 acetate sheets for face shields for our healthcare heroes after @dcsdcouncil shared our appeal. They’ve also shared them with @AcademyStrabane’s DT department who are now face shield manufacturers. #ppe #BetterTogether

On her first anniversary today, we remember fondly better times with Lyra McKee and John Loughton at the Nutts Ball a few years back. Although we only met her on a few occasions, she made such an impression on everyone and will be very sorely missed #BeBetter #ThePowerOfUs

.@JCIDerry members Selina & Paul getting stuck in to help address the #PPEshortage. In conjunction with local business @PieceMakers1, we sourced materials & helped to produce hundreds of visors before distributing to local health trusts & care homes. #BeBetter #ThePowerOfUs
