LOCAL SCHOOLS HELP TO PROTECT FRONTLINE STAFF THE design technology departments of local schools have taken it upon themselves to help with the shortage of PPE equipment by assembling face guards and distributing them directly to the frontline staff that desperately need them. Jon Grifflow, a head of faculty at Chaucer school, part of the Tapton Trust told Look Local: “This all started when our head of engineering saw the designs for PPE masks online and realised that we had the kit and resources to help, Gemma Mujushi called into the trust rounded up a small volunteer production line. At the same time our colleagues at Bradfield had started up a similar workshop. PROTECTION: NHS staff with some of the masks from Bradfeld School
“Julia Delaney, our trust’s chief operating officer, started a crowdfunding project and our families were amazing; we raised £4,000 in a few days. “One of our governors helped secure resources too; Mudfords have provided us with the polypropylene we need free of charge. “While the lazer-cutter in D.T. is running hot there are other members of staff taking food hampers to the families we serve that most need them. “We are part of a family of schools and we are a community school, we are really happy to play our part in helping those that are looking after our communities.”
