U.K. has physically gone to Turkey put the items in the trolley and gone home with them.
Sadly, it seems it was more difficult than we had imagined. The PPE we eventually collected from Turkey was sub-standard so can't be used.

Coronavirus PPE: Gowns ordered from Turkey fail to meet safety standards
Some 400,000 surgical gowns ordered from Turkey have not been given to NHS workers because they do not meet British safety standards, the government has confirmed.
The shipment of personal protective equipment was flown to the UK by the RAF last month, but is now stuck in a government warehouse.
It is not clear if the government will seek a refund from the suppliers.
