We've been inundated with requests since launching, - which demonstrates demand! - and are doing our best to fulfill these requests, awaiting further funds to replenish our resources and get through the backlog...but we will get through it! Thanks to everyone who has been patiently waiting! (And again, if anyone can donate funds, link in bio!)

Literally down to our last £1 lol. We have a few hopeful things in the pipeline but for right now we have an immediate backlog of requests for masks and tests that we are struggling to fulfill. One or two zines left on the Ko-fi or feel free to just chuck in a random donation!
