To help prevent the spread of Coronavirus, it’s now mandatory to wear protective face-coverings when visiting shops and supermarkets throughout England. While surgical-grade personal protective equipment should remain reserved for frontline workers, reusable fabric masks can be bought from a number of retailers. They’re washable, so there’s no plastic waste, and there are plenty of cute designs too. Here’s where to find them.
