Let’s mask up and help FDSSUK raise awareness as we continue to fight COVID-19 !

As we all know, wearing a facemask has become a Government requirement in an attempt to reduce the further spread of coronavirus. Let’s make our fight against COVID-19 a fight against FD/MAS too!

We at FDSSUK have produced our own mask to help fight COVID-19 and raise awareness for FD/MAS at the same time. We urge our members to get involved by wearing our own FDSSUK mask and support our MASKUP and Stay Safe Campaign.

Any donations can be made by clicking the JUST GIVING link below and selecting Donate. Make your donation and include a message MASKUP in the Message Field to all, with any other comments you may wish to make. You will be given a reference number by JUST GIVING which may be helpful for you to note for future reference. The suggested donation is GBP 10.00. When donating please do make this a gift aided donation if you are able to. All donations will go towards improving research for better treatments and finding a cure.

Should you wish to receive your free facemask please send your home address details to joyce.ellis@fdssuk.org.uk and your mask will be on its way. Please do share them with your loved ones, family members, friends and work colleagues.

This is a great opportunity for members to promote FDSSUK. We have adult and teen/child size. We appreciate all your support. Don’t forget to share your photos on our Facebook page and hashtag: #FDSSUKMASKUP

Please note that our health care professionals have noted that facial coverings or facemasks are not a substitute for other preventative measures. Please remember to take three simple steps to help stop the spread of COVID-19: wear a mask, practice physical distancing and wash hands frequently.

Thank you all for your continued support! Stay safe, help the NHS and help save lives!
