Dr Helen Davison, Dr Finola O'Neill and Jon Fluxman; three of the founding voices in the Masks4AllUK pressure group, talk to Matt Pattison about how the campaign has successfully lobbied the UK government to change its policy on homemade mask wearing.

They talk about how things began, and the early influences on the potential importance of face masks. Then look at the road they have travelled as well as the road ahead. From hitting the front page on all major newspapers (from the Times to the Sun), to the ongoing battle to help leaders evolve their thinking, especially in Westminster.
