21 June 2020 - Mask making
Dear all,
The relaxing of lockdown has led to new rules for the wearing of facemasks. These have to be worn by travellers on public transport and we are also asked to wear them when we are in an enclosed space where social distancing isn’t possible and where we will come into contact with people you do not normally meet, for instance in shops.
This will mean that all of us will need to obtain at least a ‘few’ masks, and Hilary Davison has suggested that these could be made in the village by those with the necessary sewing skills – which rules me out – and sold locally, with all the proceeds going to a suitable local charity. She says that this idea is working well in other villages, so if you would like to lend a hand, give Hilary a ring on 07707830846 or 01305 832632 or contact me by replying to this Newsbite with your contact details and I’ll put you in touch.
I’ll have to have a couple myself - should improve my looks no end.
Stay safe
Chris
