L’Oréal Ireland donates 50,000 hygiene products and hand sanitisers to frontline healthcare workers
L’Oréal Ireland has announced it is implementing a series of measures for communities most impacted by the Covid-19 crisis.
The group and its family of brands is donating 50,000 hygiene products and hand sanitisers to frontline healthcare workers in Ireland.
These products will be provided completely free of charge and L’Oréal said that this commitment builds on the group’s wider European solidarity programme announced globally on 18 March.
L’Oréal Ireland has also committed to supporting small businesses – it has frozen the payments of its most vulnerable very small and small-sized customers in its distribution network, including hair salons, until their businesses resume. Additionally, it has shortened its payment times for small suppliers who have been most exposed to this economic crisis.
“At L’Oréal UK & Ireland we feel a strong sense of responsibility to support relief efforts for the most vulnerable during this unprecedented crisis,” said Vismay Sharma, L’Oréal UK & Ireland country managing director.
“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.”
