Please sign and share this petition. The fact that is a cross party is even greater. Thank you petitions.parliament.scot/petitions/PE18…
The Edinburgh Mask Makers closed up shop not long ago. They have graciously donated us the remainder of their funds. We are very grateful. Thank you @makers_mask!! All the money will go directly towards feeding #Edinburgh.
As the weather gets colder, we are preparing for a huge increase in the need for our services. It is already evident at hot service. Where previously we were serving 60 at dinner we are now serving 90. Please Retweet! Help us get through the winter. crowdfunder.co.uk/full-hearts-fi…

a bit longer: - there is a large store (over 700!) of masks at Porty. Anyone wishing to continue to make masks for the group will be adding to this pool, and if/when there is another spike and people need masks quickly, we will be ready 🙂 - the go fundme page is now closed
4/4 We want to end things on our terms, not die a long slow death. So: - mask makers will no longer be taking large orders of masks - the buddy scheme will continue and the group will remain open for as long as it’s needed
3/4 I cannot thank you enough and I am SO proud of everything this group has achieved - which is why I am equal parts happy and sad that there no longer appears to be a need for us. Big orders have been winding down for some time, and this week we only shifted around 200 masks.
2/4 Over the last 5 months, you have made 12,563 masks for 86 organisations and countless more individuals through the buddy scheme. Whether you’ve made one mask or 1000 masks,
1/4 IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT ABOUT THE FUTURE OF MASK MAKERS Evening my lovely mask makers! I have an announcement to make on the behalf of myself and the other admins of this group, Martha, Dhouha and Magda.

Our volunteers all wear masks when working on shift. These masks were made by the volunteer sewers at Edinburgh Mask Makers. They keep us and our users safe. Thank you @makers_mask !! #edinburgh #wearamask #staysafe

Coronavirus in Scotland: No Covid-19 deaths for ninth day in a row: bbc.in/3eZ1hlv
Another day of no deaths of confirmed cases. New cases being very closely monitored though. Positivity rate still under 1% but even small increases remind us threat of virus still very real. Please keep sticking to #FACTS advice to help us keep it under control.

Our friends at @emptykitchens are working 7 days a week to keep #Edinburgh fed. The supply chain caught up and the demand decrease for our face shields. But for these guys, the demand only increases. Today they served their 100,000th meal. Please share their story! #PleaseRT
