We’ve kicked off the new school year with a bang! Taking our ‘Future Threads’, sustainable fashion and climate education programme, to two more schools. ✅

This morning we were at @coltonhillscs, last week we visited @thomastelfordonline UTC and before the summer holidays we spoke to students at @oswbacademy. So many interesting questions from curious students! 🤔📚🎤♻️

Just 1 more school visit with our assembly presentation before the practical skills building and clothes upcycling workshops begin. 🪡🧵👚👖

And then it’s showtime at our public catwalk in the heart of Wolverhampton City Centre @mandercentre in October. It’s going to be a great few months 🤩

Thank you for having us City of Wolverhampton Council & Love Your Community @wolverhampton_today 🩵

It was lovely to see so many little hands getting involved with making their own fabric patches from scraps of material and fabric paints 🎨

Have you ever bought something because it was marketed as “sustainable” or “recycled”, only to later realise the reality was a little different? 😫

Only last month did I learn that recycled polyester is primarily made from discarded PET plastic bottles! 😱

Sustainability language is everywhere, but understanding what it actually means can be so confusing.

Hopefully increased scrutiny of fashion ads like this will encourage greater transparency and help drive meaningful change across the industry.
