The UK government has no database of UK manufacturers.
They have two forms to show interest in providing medical or emergency goods and services.
- The first is general including personal protective equipment like face masks
- The second is for ventilators. I guess that manufacturing quickly in the UK is what they're most interested in; there is a "where" box next to each item on the second form.
