Manifesto

OUR MANIFESTO:

As a collective we are going to build a platform where we educate the younger generations how to shop sustainably and create either online or in person workshops on how to up-cycle pre existing clothing etc. Once our platform has evolved these workshops could also be brought into children’s school education.

We want to focus mainly on the younger generations, but are more than happy to work with families and anybody that is willing to take time to learn about the future of fashion sustainability, to help us change it by inputting their thoughts and ideas too. 

Taking the clothing and fabrics from St Peters & St James’s hospice landfill we have sourced, we will use them to deconstruct and create new garments, accessories, interiors, furniture.

Using these in the workshops will allow the students to get a feel for what you can achieve and create with scrap fabrics and waste clothing, hopefully changing their ideology on second hand items.

By targeting young people between the ages of 14-18, we are also targeting fast fashion companies main consumers. By educating this particular demographic we can try and make sustainable fashion and textiles a more desirable market and reduce the amount of interest and money going into fast fashion.
