Thursday 5 June
Workshop 1 (11:50-13:30) | Workshop 2 (13:50-14:30)
FDF25 Popup Shop | 30a Spital Square, London E1 6DX
Learn how to prolong the life of garments in this informative upcycling workshop led by fashion resale platform Round Retail.
Highlighting textile waste and social justice issues tackled by The Revival — a community-driven innovation hub who help recycle textile waste in Ghana’s Kantamanto Market — Round Retail invites you to explore the impact of the export of textiles from the UK and learn practical skills that will help to keep clothing in circulation for longer.
Bring along a piece you no longer wear — whether it needs a small repair or you simply want to rework it into something fresh. This is a space to experiment, learn new skills, embrace circularity and rethink the potential of what’s already in your wardrobe.
Round Retail
Round Retail is a charitable fashion resale concept that creates meaningful retail experiences in meanwhile spaces that not only support our planet by circulating quality pre-loved fashion, but also the people that live on it through our charity partners.
Our community pop-up stores, workshops and events provide visibility and fundraising for charities, while our ‘Powered By Round Retail’ offering gives charities the opportunity to have their own branded store to engage their partners and maximise their impact.
Since our launch we’ve re-homed over 2000 garments, saved over 10,000kgs of CO2 and raised over £20,000 for independent charities and community organisations.
