Scrub Hub are a network of voluntary community groups who love to sew, and are making scrubs to order for NHS staff who are struggling to get them during this crisis.
If you are a NHS worker and are searching for scrubs but haven’t had any luck, visit https://scrubhub.org.uk/allhubs/ to order.
They have not been in touch with trusts or hospitals but have been working to fulfil personal orders from individual Doctors through networks and communities. Some doctors including consultants and GPs don’t usually wear scrubs – but are realising this is the safest and easiest way for them to dress during this crisis.
There is currently a shortage in some areas and Scrub Hub are hoping that by setting up community garment making hubs they can make a difference little by little for our local doctors. The scrubs are made to order by experienced and professional volunteers, working safely (and rather magically) within the guidelines of the lock down. Each hub asks for a donation per uniform when orders are placed to cover material and delivery.
If you are member of the public and you’d like to sponsor their efforts go to this link https://www.gofundme.com/f/75cgu3-scrubs-for-nhs-staff-in-the-frontline
Through this fund they will be donating to help support the NHS Practitioners health service. They help care for and support the mental well being of NHS workers, who are doing such an amazing and selfless job of looking after us all during this time.
Scrub Hub is a group of volunteers across the UK making scrubs for NHS staff who are struggling to get them during this crisis.
Scrub Hub North East are trying to raise funds to make as many sets of scrubs as possible to dress the amazing NHS staff.
