Last week, Norfolk’s Resilience Forum launched an appeal for firms to help support the need for more Personal Protection Equipment (PPE). They have now passed 100 responses to the appeal. This is a tremendous show of support from the business community. Every offer, large or small, is needed and they would like to thank every one of those businesses.
The PPE appeal is still open, if you think you can help please go to: https://newanglia.co.uk/data-capture-for-ppe-supply-during-covid/ to pledge your support. The 100 pledges of support join an existing list of partners who got in touch directly – so there are no over 250 leads on the database.
New Anglia LEP are pulling together all the offers of support and is then sharing the information with local partners who procure their own supplies directly. The list includes:
- Companies offering existing supplies
- Companies who are in the PPE/medical equipment supply chain making us aware of deliveries, stock and provision
- Companies who are already or who plan to change their production to make PPE (or parts for PPE)
The equipment that is needed is listed below – please register if you can help with any of these products:
- Alcohol/ethanol based sanitisers
- Chlorine based wipes
- Disinfectant solutions
- Disposable aprons/coveralls/overshoes
- Face masks
- Face visors
- Nitrile Gloves
- Protective suits
- Elasticated overshoes
- Aprons
- Eye Protection
