I have worked with Rebecca Cole on both Unique Boutique for Channel 4 and contributing to the foreword for her book- All Access Sewing. She is one of the most incredible seamstresses and pattern cutters I have EVER worked with and I’m sharing in the hope someone here in my network can snap her up quick- there should be a path beaten to her do to hire her.

Another amazing collaboration with the University recently and this time the beneficiaries Filey Cat Rescue! Sunday we delivered lots of fabulous clothing to help support our furry friends at Filey Cat Rescue. Link in the comments... They are desperate for volunteers for their fantastic shop if you are looking for something special to do with your time 😻 After donating our time to talk, delivering equipment and then transporting items, we will be celebrating with a cat cuddle 😻 #GiveAndTake #SwopShop #CircularEconomy #Collaboration #Volunteer Alt text a bootful of colourful carrier bags filled with surplus clothing being transported to Filey Cat Rescue charity shop and 6 black and white cats all looking to be rehomed

When customers give unsolicited feedback that your product is better than anything else on the market there’s no feeling quite like it. When that same feedback comes from your B2B customers too the feeling is amplified 100fold. I’m just off a call with a brand who will be using our new brand-integrated clothing take-back platform RELOOP to drive their circularity efforts. They had previously used one of the market leading take-back providers to create a take-back scheme. But after a year found there was limited customer uptake, the monthly cost was too high, and they sadly ended up ceasing the programme. Since then they’ve spoken with numerous other providers but found their solutions clunky, difficult to put in place, and ultimately off putting. The net result of this poor execution? Less circularity. Until now. We’ve ploughed 4 years of firsthand, circularity experience and customer conversations into building RELOOP. It’s designed to be so easy for customer to use it that it becomes a question of why not, rather than why. And Brands love it because it’s risk free, cost free, effort free and guarantees a return. In the words of the wonderful team I just spoke with “it’s just so smooth!”. As a result we’re launching RELOOP with 6 more brands over the next month. And there are more in the pipeline! If you’d like to learn more please DM me. We’re just getting started… Or learn more here: https://lnkd.in/eftyv6cP And see RELOOP in action here: https://lnkd.in/eDnMrX2b #circulareconomy #takeback #circularsolutions #usercentreddesign #secondhandseptember

Many, many, many times I've questioned whether what we attempted actually mattered... To have others acknowledge it, means the world... 💚 I'm still here, annoying anyone who will listen! #TextileTalks #Refuse #WearCareRepair

Restoring Loved and Memorable Items... Why we created the #WearCareRepair Campaign... We can often find ourselves replacing items as soon as they show signs of wear and tear. So what if we shifted our mindset and put more emphasis on restoring and cherishing the things we love? That's exactly what the #WearCareRepair Campaign aimed to do... #TextileTalks created a space to talk about the importance of giving longevity to items that hold sentimental value and cherished memories... Sometimes, it's hard to let go of an item that has witnessed countless memories and special moments... This suitcase is one of those items, it holds a sentimental value that cannot be replaced...* We did that, we explored why restoring loved and memorable items should be a part of our collective consciousness... We understood the power of sentimental value, and the stories it tells... *restoration story in the comments 👀 #TextileTalks #CircularConversations #ConsumersPower #RefuseNew Alt text a beautiful black with silver trim BARROW HEPBURN & GALE LTD vanity case, restored and returned to its original owner, shows on a snow path with black railings and green trees

There’s a growing ambition for people in North Yorkshire to reuse more and waste less.  Does your organisation work in the reuse arena? Are you interested in ramping up the green agenda and representing the vital impact that reuse can have on a circular economy?  If so, please join us for our next meeting of our North Yorkshire Reuse Network. We are getting together in Malton on Wednesday 31 July from 2pm to discuss a range of potential opportunities for inspiration, collaboration and partnership working.    We’re hosting this session with Circular Malton and Norton CIC to bring together like-minded VCSE organisations and groups. The aim is to explore how we can have a greater impact and move towards a more sustainable future and what needs to be done to make this happen.    To find out more and register your attendance, visit our website ➡️ https://lnkd.in/ecUiTAUX    Yorkshire Children's Charity Scarborough, Whitby and Ryedale Mind Community Counselling
