I pledge to reduce textile waste

I will reduce textile waste by:

  • Only buying what I need and using what I have creatively 
  • Repairing (or getting others to repair) damaged clothes 
  • Upcycling unused clothing into other items of purpose e.g. reusable produce bags, headbands
  • Swapping and sharing clothes with friends and family
  • Donating clothes I no longer need to charities 
  • Looking after my clothing properly
  • Borrowing or hiring clothing when I am likely to only wear an item a small number of times
  • Buying quality items made of natural fibres
