How Frontline Medical Support are supporting our NHS

Posted by Frontline Medical Staff on Apr 9, 2020 2:36:51 PM

We are a group of doctors, most of whom are working frontline in the NHS in the fight against COVID-19. We have established this fundraise to provide much needed equipment and supplies to our frontline colleagues so that they have the necessary protection and tools to treat their patients.

Although the NHS is doing its best to order supplies, there are significant shortages at a local level. With a UK and International supply chain already in place, we have been sourcing and delivering PPE, masks, visors and sanitiser directly to staff since the last week of March. We have established a logistics network to supply medics in London, Birmingham, Manchester and Liverpool and we are delivering the equipment directly into the hands of the staff who need it. We need your support to keep the PPE coming as it is likely the situation will get worse in the UK before it gets better. Please give generously.
