In 2020 the world was facing two global viruses. One that had been around for just a few months. Another that had existed for hundreds of years.

We created these masks to combat both. Protecting protestors from the spread of one virus, whilst carrying a message against the ongoing one.

Having made the masks, we worked
with ‘We Stand UK’ to get them into the hands of the right people. Together, we distributed the masks for free during the London protests in June 2020. We went with the belief that kindness and love can spread much faster and more powerfully than any virus. The masks have subsequently appeared on ITV News, The Telegraph, Sky News, The BBC, Financial Times, The Evening Standard, CNN, Mixmag and Love Magazine.

The project continues running on our website, where you can donate to the relevant causes in return for a mask.
