Story
Update
We met our goal of supplying 100,000 face shields on a non-profit basis, and are now pleased to announce that NHS NI are now purchasing Hero Shield directly.
We have passed all commercial sales of Hero Shield to our production partners, with 5% of all proceeds being donated back to Hero Shield; which will continue to operate as a charity going forwards.
Any further funds we raise will be used to continue to supply Hero Shields free of charge to charity partners and support our care workers.
You can continue to follow the Hero Shield journey at www.heroshield.net where we will post details of our charitable projects going forwards.
As a registered charity, no trustees will take any payment, so 100% of proceeds will be used to support our care workers in any way we can in the UK and Ireland.

We are also pleased to announce that Heroshield is now approved by the NHS NI and we will now be supplying NHS directly as much as we can produce for as long as necessary. Any further funding raised for HeroShield will be used to continue to provide free Hero Shields or direct financial support to charity services including Hospices, Care homes, food banks, etc. Thank you!

5 years agoHELLO!!! We hope you all had a normal-ish easter? We've still been working away, making, assembling packing and shipping more Hero Shields to where they are needed. We have sent out over 50,000 so far, and thanks to your generous donations, those NHS and frontline workers didn't have to pay a penny! Special shout out to the Northern Ireland Search & Rescue team, who have been clocking up thousands of miles, delivering thousands of visors up and down the country! Thank you!
