Based in Oldbury, West Midlands Mantech UK is an engineering firm usually selling machine tools. They have the machines and skills to make visors so desperately needed by frontline carers in the community and hospitals during the Covid-19 pandemic

Ade has been able to get a limited supply of full face visors for distribution to union members, the first batch going to Bradley resource centre.
Mantech say"Many of our staff have family members on the frontline in the West Midlands area and so far we have funded the materials for over 900 visors ourselves and will continue to do so whilst our help is needed.
We have requests from local hospitals, care homes, GPs and community workers flooding in.
If anyone would like to support us in this work we welcome any donations. Every penny donated will only be spent on materials to enable us to keep meeting the demand."
