Story
Dear friends,
Our healthcare workers are on the frontline of the fight against coronavirus, but often have little protection. Italy has seen 6,205 healthcare workers infected, with 51 deaths, while in Spain 9,444 healthcare workers have so far contracted the disease! We don't want the same tragedy repeated here...
Having had some experience helping Chinese hospitals during February outbreak, we've decided to pull our resources together to support the NHS workers in London hospitals, no matter how small the support is. We have so far raised nearly £4000 personal fund and used it to purchase the PPEs from our strictly-selected and qualified suppliers that fully meet the NHS standards.
During our liaison with hospitals, we realise that there is still a lot of shortage of protective equipments at the moment, especially in small to mid-sized hospitals, and non-severe Covid wards in large hospitals. We are initially working directly with two London hospitals, but the list is now growing...
Therefore we are seeking wide circle of friends and family's support to help us raise more fund in order to cover more healthcare workers. Every little helps - £5 could buy a highest standard face mask, £8 a basic protective suit, £15 a protective goggle/visor and £50 head-to-toe protective kits for an ICU worker, and don't forget all of those are disposable items. We make sure 100% of the donation would be used to purchase quality protective equipments for the designated London NHS hospitals. The more protection, the fewer casualties and the more lives could be saved!
If you would like to receive updates on our collection and donation status, please email us at 2020protectourheroes@gmail.com
Your kind donation and support would be greatly appreciated! Let's work together!
Yours sincerely,
Joyce Qian, Diana Jarrett and Joy Zhou
