A lad in work has learning difficulties he’s a cleaner and this morning they shouted at him saying you need to wear a mask he said my doctor said I don’t legally have to wear one because I have ADHD I am expect. does anyone no if this is true or not? I honestly don’t no. told him google it but he doesn’t have a smartphone or access to a number, made the poor lad cry now he’s wearing I mask. I recorded it proper harsh that !

- people who cannot put on, wear or remove a face covering because of a physical or mental illness or impairment, or disability
- where putting on, wearing or removing a face covering will cause you severe distress https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/face-coverings-when-to-wear-one-and-how-to-make-your-own/face-coverings-when-to-wear-one-and-how-to-make-your-own
He should get a face covering exemption card and wear it, this way it will help with people approaching them for not wearing one.

That is very harsh indeed @samfits99, I'm sorry your work friend had to go through that. It's a shame that some people have a lack of understanding about exemptions.

Hi @samfits99, how is your friend doing? I hope an exemption card will help.
