Materials to make Covid visors for free
Donation protected
My name is Annette and I have formed a group of 3D printers throughout Wiltshire making 3D printed masks . We have orders outstanding in their thousands and we have delivered hundreds since inception,
We call ourselves Shield Wiltshire and we are a group of 20+ and growing daily.
We are making a difference by supplying many care homes, Covid volunteer groups, Domestic abuse charities, doctor surgeries and mental health professionals. Our aim is to help local, grass root organisations or people who are front line and have no protection. We already have many grateful recipients and all visors are given free of charge to the end user. We do not charge anything to anyone in need.
So far, we have all self funded apart from the odd donation of material from kind members of the public. But now the orders have gone through the roof, we are beginning to struggle to continue to do this and bear in mind, all of these wonderful 3D printers in my team are making these visors free of charge, in their own homes giving up much time and using their own electricity and there is inevitable wear and tear to their equipment, churning out the kind of numbers we have been producing.
We would be very happy to receive any donation, no matter how small or even could provide a link to materials required.
We really want to increase productivity and we hope that we will not be having to do this for too long so that we can all return to our day jobs and some kind of normality!
Within a day or so, we will have a website running and a facebook page, where you can see for yourselves the kind of gratitude we receive daily from people we are supplying to.
Any donation will make all of the difference to what we are doing and if we end up with surplus, we will certainly donate it to charity. Nobody is taking any kind of salary, we work for free to try help in this awful time.
Thank you for taking the time to read this and thank you for any help you can give us.
Thank you all so much and stay safe and well!
