Back at the start of November 2020, Made in Group purchased 700 "Backing Britain" re-usable face masks, to support the UK manufacturing and engineering industry...
As of this week, over 500 of these face masks have been sent out to members for FREE. Made in Group have sent these masks out to their members, based in both the Midlands and Yorkshire, to allow them to show their support for British industry - whilst simultaneously slowing the spread of Covid-19.
There were a variety of ways in which Made in the Midlands and Made in Yorkshire members could qualify for a free facemask, including submitting an article to the Made Futures book, hosting a Virtual Breakfast Morning or simply being an active user on their microsite!
Backing Britain is an initiative started by the Made in Group to support manufacturers and businesses alike in the UK. Showcasing the high-quality manufacturing and engineering standards delivered from the UK, Backing Britain hopes to highlight the importance of industry and keeping supply chains within the country.
In keeping with the #BackingBritain initiative, these "PM 2.5 Washable Face Masks" masks have been purchased from Breathe Britain, a company that manufactures 100% of their masks in the UK. These masks have also been manufactured with adjustable straps for premium comfort.

CEO of Made in Group, Jason Pitt, previously said the following: “We wanted to purchase these facemasks for members with the Backing Britain logo on to symbolise why we wear them. By wearing the masks, we are doing our part to protect our fellow citizens."
This campaign has seen countless members of both Made in the Midlands and Made in Yorkshire take to social media to show off their Backing Britain facemasks and, ultimately, Made in Group are proud to have facilitated so many people in showing their support for British manufacturing, whilst promoting safety at the same time.
There are still just over 100 facemasks left from the original 700 ordered, so if you are a member of Made in Group and would like to recieve yours for free, simply get in touch with [email protected] today!
