PGM Fund: Covid-19 Donation of £2000 to:” For the love of Scrubs”

2/7/2020

0 Comments

 
W. Bro Andy Evans: Hall Cross Lodge 5744

When I saw an advert in the Doncaster Councils Covid-19 weekly email update I passed the info on to my daughter Jade who along with Sandra, the wife of W. Bro Dennis Atkin, has joined the small army of volunteers helping to make Scrubs for the vastly under-supplied Doncaster and Bassetlaw NHS workers.​

The volunteer team is sponsored by Refurnish, owned, and run by Andy Simson. Refurnish is a Doncaster based charity which works in partnership with the local authority and Sita UK to collect bulky household furniture and goods from domestic properties in the Doncaster Borough. Wherever possible these items are reused or recycled and put to good use.
During this period of lock down, Doncaster Refurnish has effectively diversified its skills into supporting volunteers to produce scrubs for front line workers in hospitals and care homes in their own localities. A dedicated Facebook page enables the individual members to remain engaged with the rest of the group. 

The volunteer team is called “For the Love of Scrubs”, has its own Facebook page Link: Doncaster & Bassetlaw "For the love of Scrubs" and is run from Nightshades Clothing warehouse owned and fully organised by Kerry Burton
