Alternative methods for adjusting and tightening a face mask

From tomorrow morning face coverings and masks will be mandatory for everyone in England shops as well as for anyone using public transport.

Our care staff know only too well how frustrating it can be to work with an ill fitting or uncomfortable mask. That’s why our Training Officer Natalie has created a quick video sharing some of the alternative methods used by our staff for adjusting or resizing your masks for a better and more comfortable fit, without risking safety of yourselves or those around you.

(This video references a disposable surgical face mask, but all these methods can be adapted to be used for all regular face masks)
