One of our key values here at Crumb is to affect change for the better in our industry, so we love to work with brands and charities doing their bit to improve things for our planet and the humans residing on it.
We were proud to work on two inspirational collaborations recently focussing on recycling, reusing and making sustainable fashion something that is achievable and affordable for everyone, a brilliantly worthwhile cause and something we were proud to support.
First up, we have Barnardo's partnership with ASOS Marketplace bringing an amazing range of vintage clothes available to purchase through the platform, with 100% of profits going to the brilliant work Barnardo's do every day for the UK's most vulnerable children and young people.
If you are a London resident, you may have seen the brilliant #LoveNotLandfill campaign around town promoting recycling your unwanted clothes by dropping them off at clothes banks cross town, a map for which is here. The team then go through everything, recycle where possible with the aim of ensuring these no longer loved items don't end up in landfill. 11 million items of clothing go to landfill in the UK every week, so this great campaign is doing it's bit to try and avoid that at all costs!
PUT IT IN A CLOTHES BANK.
GIVE TO CHARITY.
SWAP.
BUY 2ND HAND.
Thanks to everyone involved!
Love,
