Brno is currently lacking disposable face masks for nursing homes and social workers in the field. Until the supplies resume, we will sew, collect, disinfect, pack and distribute masks, where it is needed the most. If you are a field worker, social worker or work in the health services and you need a mask, contact us.
It is not in our capabilities to sew for individuals; the priority is given to the organisations that care for the people at risk. Thank you for your understanding.
Live: Our infoline is available daily 8-16 at (+420) 542 123 425.
Live: Do you want to sew, but lack the material? We will deliver it to you, please let us know.
How to use and handle the masks?
- Attention, do not "sterilise" the masks in the microwave as they might start to burn!
- The fabric and cords have to be 100% cotton, so we can disinfect and reuse them.
- You can sew a DIY mask e.g. following these instructions.
- There is no need to shrink the fabric in advance and the threads can also be polyester.
There are sewing machines, materials and teachers available daily from 8-16 in Husa na provázku theatre at Zelný trh 9 and in Podaná kavárna café at Hilleho 5. We work in 4 shifts of 20 volunteers and each shift takes 3 hours. Come and help us!
Bring what you have to the gate of the Husa na Provázku theatre. Please, make sure the fabrics are washed and ironed.
Contact us, we will deliver the material. For each 5 masks sewn, you can take 1 for your use.
We will come for them, so that you don't have to leave the house. Please, let us know, and we will contact you.
- You can print out this handout and put it up in your neighbourhood, so the information spread as far as possible.
- We need to collect the masks for disinfection and bring the material to our sewing teams Volunteer drivers, come here!
