Here's a handy place to buy reusable face masks

TL;DR: Etsy is still stocking a wide range of reusable face masks, with options available for less than £1.

Everyone is doing their best to practise social distancing, but sometimes it's really not that easy to stay away from others. This is when a face mask can help.

We're not talking about medical masks, because these should be reserved for healthcare workers. We're talking about those reusable face masks made out of cloth, which can still play a part in slowing the spread of coronavirus without affecting essential supplies to the frontline.

You could make your own, but that would require a certain degree of skill. It's much easier to order one online. Well, it would be easy if it wasn't for the fact that stocks are in short supply. It seems like everyone has had the same idea, so you need to be smart when shopping.

If you're struggling to find supplies, the answer is Etsy. Absolutely loads of creators are selling handmade face masks right now, with a wide range of patterns and styles to consider. It's important to remember that face masks sold on Etsy aren't medical-grade, but they still serve a purpose.
