Distance Aware badge
As COVID-19 restrictions ease, we know that some people affected by lymphoma are concerned about staying safe outside their homes as they are considered to be at higher risk of serious illness from COVID-19. The #DistanceAware shield is a recognised symbol that shows others that you need space.
We are proud to be part of the Distance Aware campaign and have put together a pack for you to use - this includes x6 64mm stickers and x2 badges (one 45mm and one 58mm). They are a clear and polite way to prompt ongoing distancing and respect of social space.
Distance Aware is a recognised symbol across the UK for people who wish to have a safe distance maintained. Initially launched by NHS Wales in 2020, it is supported by the Department for Health and Social Care, the Scottish Government and the Public Health Agency in Northern Ireland.
Our packs are free to order (please complete the form below) however, if you are able, we would really appreciate it if you could text SHIELD to 70331 to make a £3 donation towards our costs to produce and post out these badges. Note: We can only post the packs to addresses within the UK (including Isle of Man and the Channel Islands).
We have also created a poster to remind people to be distance aware and keep others safe, which can be displayed in your window; in the office or in a shop / restaurant window. Download your distance aware poster here.
