Here’s how businesses can help with supplies and services to respond to COVID-19

If you or your business are in a position to donate supplies and services, here’s how you can help.

The Irish Government has created a database that enables organisations and business to offer to supply or donate goods and services, during these difficult times.

The central database will operate on behalf of the whole public service, but specifically the HSE due to the spread of Covid-19.

The Government has said that goods and services required by the health services are currently “a priority” but that this may change as the situation develops.

This database can be used by business as well as publicly-funded and voluntary bodies, (including educational institutions) who wish to offer goods or services to assist in Ireland’s response to COVID-19.

If your organisation is already supplying goods or services to the government, you do not need to do anything as normal arrangements will apply.

Anything you donate or sell as part of this fight against COVID-19 will not be considered in any future government procurement.

If you wish to assist in any way, you can fill out this form, or find more information on the subject here.
