Find out how to request personal protection equipment (PPE)
Before requesting PPE
Before requesting PPE, please make sure that you have read the latest government guidance on PPE, and whether your organisation needs to be using it.
Please note in all cases, your request will be reviewed and may need to be moderated due to limited supplies.
If you're not one of the listed providers, unfortunately we're not able to support your request. Emergency supplies are limited and therefore they're being prioritised according with government guidance.
