Scots comedian Frankie Boyle has backed a campaign to provide PPE to NHS staff. Glasgow's popular music venue SWG3 is spearheading a campaign to help raise £50,000 for the production of personal protective equipment in Glasgow.
The venue is supporting Kelvinside Academy, which has recently transformed its Innovation School building into a PPE manufacturing and distribution point amid the coronavirus pandemic.
So far, Kelvinside, Larbert High School, Caldervale High School and their wider partner schools' network have produced and delivered more than 5000 custom-built visors to hospitals, surgeries, pharmacies and care homes across Greater Glasgow, including Wishaw General Hospital, Glasgow Royal Infirmary and Royal Alexandra Hospital.
