WEARING A FACE COVERING

A cloth face covering is NOT PPE. They are not intended for the personal protection of the wearer – they are designed to prevent people who have COVID-19, but might not know it, from spreading it to others. In simple terms, if I wear one I protect you, if you wear one you protect me.

A cloth face covering can be very simple. The important thing is that it should cover your mouth and nose while allowing you to breathe comfortably.

Face coverings are not a substitute for social distancing or washing your hands regularly – and they need to complement these behaviours. Wash your hands or use hand sanitiser before putting it on and after taking it off. Try not to touch your face, or the face covering while you are wearing it.

Once removed, make sure you clean any surfaces the face covering has touched. Regular household cleaner works fine.

After wearing them store your worn face coverings in a plastic bag until you have an opportunity to wash them. You should wash a face covering regularly. It can go in with other laundry, using your normal laundry detergent. It does not need to be a hot wash, it’s the detergent which destroys the virus.

No small child available to model these so Ted has stepped in. These cute face coverings are now whinging their way to a little girl in South Tyneside, and I’m in love with this limited edition unicorn fabric. What a great choice of fabric!

Message if you’d like to place an order 😷 lots of other fabric choices in the photo albums

The World Health Organization (WHO) has changed its advice on face masks, saying they should be worn in public to help stop the spread of coronavirus.

The global body said new information showed they could provide "a barrier for potentially infectious droplets".

Some countries around the world already recommend or mandate the wearing of face coverings in public.

The WHO had previously argued there was not enough evidence to say that healthy people should wear masks.

Dr Maria Van Kerkhove, the WHO's technical lead expert on Covid-19, told Reuters news agency the recommendation was for people to wear a "fabric mask - that is, a non-medical mask" in areas where there is a risk of transmission of the disease.

Strangely sewers in the UK knew this months ago....... be prepared, order your face covering today. These have two layers , with a pocket for a filter for added protection should you choose to use it.

I’ll be uploading some new designs later today including children’s - message me if I can help in anyway
