Face the Covid 19 pandemic by making your own simple Face Cover. And Cover it with Art! Support the NHS Charities Together and slow the spread of the virus.

Join the effort to make your own face covering. And share your artistic talent with others! 

What to Do?

1. If you can, donate to the NHS Charities Together fund through this Just Giving page. 

2. Make your face mask. Take a photo of the mask and send it to: facecoverart@gmail.com. (If you are under 18 years of age, please get your parent/guardian’s permission to send the photo). We will display your face cover art here (https://covid-face-cover-art.netlify.app/) to inspire others.

3. Enjoy your face covering and thank you for participating in a worthy cause!

By making your own Face Cover, you are:
- Helping the NHS
- Not impacting limited supplies of face masks
- Slowing the spread of the virus. Face covers help those who may have the virus but not know it, from transmitting to others
- Up-cycling old clothes
