Yorkshire firm Clad Safety has donated 125 hi-vis vests to volunteers at local vaccination centres.

The jackets have gone to Harrogate Easier Living Project (HELP) volunteers who are currently working at the Harrogate and Ripon centres.

Clad Safety makes workwear and PPE and is Yorkshire based.

Neil Trevvett, Managing Director at CLAD Safety said they wanted to showed their support to the local charity.

“We have seen how HELP’s volunteers have been providing the local community with vital support including shopping, running errands and phone befriending over the pandemic. When they approached us for support to supply branded hi-vis vests for their volunteer marshals we were delighted to provide them with these items.”
