I've raised £1500 to Create 3D print face shields for our NHS staff and key workers, to assist with the national shortage of PPE.

The response we received from our call out on Facebook for key workers in need of PPE was phenomenal so we were wondering whether it would be worthwhile crowd funding to be able to purchase more materials to be able to manufacture more.
So far, local midwifery services, undertakers and care home staff have benefited from the first big batch of shields but we received so many requests we need to make more!
We've so far invested around £1000 which includes purchasing two new printers and reels of filament but in order to create more we need help. Obviously these are incredibly uncertain times but if you could donate anything at all it would all be for such a worthwhile cause.
A single face shield costs around 58p to make so every penny counts. These are made using PETG which means they are reusable if wiped down and sanitised.
This is a not for profit venture, all funds raised will be used to purchase materials so that more face shields can be made and given to those that really need them.
If we raise enough to purchase more printers our plan is to donate to a local school or organisation when this is all over so others can benefit from this fabulous technology.
