Where to buy reusable face masks in the UK
TL;DR: Etsy is stocking a wide range of reusable face masks, with options available for less than £1.
The latest announcement from the government is that face coverings must be worn by shoppers in England from July 24 to help stop the spread of coronavirus. If you haven't already secured your own face covering, this is the time to start shopping.
We should be clear that we're not talking about medical masks, as these should always be reserved for healthcare workers. We're talking about reusable face masks made out of cloth, which can still play an important role in protecting anyone you come into close contact with.

Fortunately, there are a number of retailers that stock these reusable face masks. If you're struggling to find something that works for you, we recommend Etsy. Thousands of talented creators are selling handmade face masks on the site, with a wide range of patterns and styles on offer.
It's important to note that items sold on Etsy, such as masks and hand sanitisers, aren't medical-grade. Sellers can't make medical or health claims about their products, but they still serve a purpose.
