Warwick Technicians assisting in the response to the pandemic

Many of our Technicians having been helping in the response to the pandemic, we wish to share the work they have been doing and give our thanks for all their efforts. A huge thanks to Neil Gillespie, Senior Civil Engineering Technician from the School of Engineering and Kevin Murphy, Chemistry Core Technician who helped with a team of colleagues from across our Estates and Science departments, to gather up key equipment and take it to the University Hospitals Coventry and Warwickshire NHS Trust’s Coventry site.

So far they have supplied the following to the trust:

  • 155 FFP3 face masks
  • 470 over glasses
  • 400 safety glasses
  • 20,400 nitrile gloves of various sizes
  • 1,000 shoe covers

Also a huge thanks to Technicians Steering Group member Robb Johnston (Technical Services Manager of the Department of Physics) who also gathered some of the PPE to take to UHCW.
