In an ongoing effort to support the fight against Coronavirus, L’Oréal UK and Ireland will donate more than half a million hygiene products and hand sanitisers to frontline healthcare workers.
The group will donate a further 300,000 hand sanitisers to frontline retail staff working at Boots, Tesco, ASDA, Sainsbury’s and Irish retailer Dunnes Stores who are ensuring availability of essential goods and services to communities across UK and Ireland.
These products will be provided completely free of charge, with the aim to serve those that are deemed the most vulnerable and striving to curb the pandemic.
Items include shampoo and bodywash from top brands, including Kiehl’s, Lancôme, Urban Decay, YSL, House 99, L’Oréal Paris Men Expert, La Roche-Posay, CeraVe, Vichy, Roger and Gallet, Baxter of California, Kerastase, Redken, Matrix and Decleor.
Vismay Sharma, L’Oréal UK and Ireland Country Managing Director, commented: "At L'Oréal UK & Ireland we feel a strong sense of responsibility to support relief efforts for the most vulnerable during this unprecedented crisis. The frontline healthcare workers and retail staff are doing an incredible job looking after the sick and providing essential products and services to communities."
"We feel honoured to be able to provide them with hand sanitisers and key hygiene products. We believe in the beauty of community and are proud to contribute to the needs of our heroic NHS and HSE staff, and those on the retail frontlines across the UK and Ireland."
This commitment builds on the L’Oréal Group’s wider European solidarity programme announced globally on 18 March.
L’Oréal is also donating 10,000 examination Gloves to the London Ambulance Service.
