A big numbers day today. We made our 4000th visor, we managed to assemble more than 1000 in a day (1049 to be exact) and our overall total nearly reached 4700!

Please get in touch if you need visors.

Redborne D&T - PPE update
We also diversified and are using our offcuts to make ear-savers for people wearing surgical masks that fit over the ears. I have 150 of these to give away and they are in groups of 10. Let me know if you need ear-savers? [email protected]

Redborne D&T - PPE update

Big day yesterday! 368 visors produced - largest number by far. Also sourced supplies of polypropylene and will now be able to produce for a couple of weeks if we can get equal supplies of the clear shield parts.

[Redborne D&T @RedborneDT]

The department has also diversified into scrubs/scrub bags/masks production - the Textiles, Food and Child Development staff are madly sewing these products up and sending to NHS.

[Redborne D&T @RedborneDT]

A reminder that any key workers wanting visors should email [email protected] and a second reminder that there is no charge for these visors - they are a gift from me and my school to say thank and to help you stay safe.

[Redborne D&T @RedborneDT]

Other good news is that two local firms - Massmould and PressFab - have joined Redborne in manufacturing visors and are adding their work to the output of the school - they're 3D printing visors and passing on to me for distribution.

[Redborne D&T @RedborneDT]

We've finally got some more polypropylene! We were able to re-start manufacturing today and had a good day with 300 visors made. Thinner materials and a redesigned strap meant quicker laser cutting and we were able to keep up - 300 is our biggest day of production so far.

[Redborne D&T @RedborneDT]

Just been on BBC 3 Counties Radio talking about visors!

[Redborne D&T @RedborneDT]

We have made 700 visors so far and over 800 still pending!

Still taking requests for visors - please email [email protected].

Visors so far gone to: care homes; shops; police; paramedics; surgeons; maternity; A&E; food banks; fire fighters; nurses; the list goes on!

[Redborne D&T @RedborneDT]

The Redborne DT department are manufacturing visors for key workers. If you would like one free of charge and can collect from Ampthill please let us know?
