PSA Group UK is supplying personal protection equipment (PPE) face masks to NHS hospitals and a number of care homes close to the company's two UK manufacturing plants in Luton and Ellesmere Port, and its offices in Coventry.
In total, 50,000 masks will be supplied this week, shared between the Countess of Chester and Arrow Park hospitals in Cheshire, the Luton & Dunstable Hospital and six care homes in Coventry.
David Connell, human resources director, said: "The heroes, both in the NHS and in care homes, are leading the fight on the front line against the COVID-19 pandemic and PSA Group are proud to be able to support them with this worthwhile donation."
