The Helicopter Emergency Landing Pads or HELP Appeal is the only charity in the country nationally funding helipads. The charity, which relies on donations from the public, has recreated classic posters to help motivate people to stay at home in the fight against coronavirus and relieve pressure on NHS staff across Scarborough.
Robert Bertram, CEO of HELP Appeal, said: “We hope to channel the indomitable spirit of the British people during WWII, the inspirational speeches of Winston Churchill and iconic wartime icons such as Rosie the Riveter, to encourage people in the battle against Coronavirus. Everyone needs to batten down the hatches for a bit longer to help protect our local hospitals and save lives.”
All posters, including versions that can be coloured in, are available to print for free HERE.
