Earth Day 2022

To celebrate Earth Day 2022 with my community, I hosted an upcycling workshop at Shrubs & Dubs in East London. Attendees brought an old item of clothing that they wanted to give a new lease of life to. Everyone learnt how to embellish their old item using scrap fabric, while sipping Punchy drinks and eating snacks from Nudies & Propercorn.

By remaking and upcycling an old item of clothing, you can extend its life span which, in turns, reduces the items carbon footprint and means it is more sustainable! Fashion Revolution states, by extending the life span of an item of clothing by 9 months, you can reduce its carbon footprint by 20-30%.

Learning how to upcycle can be a really therapeutic and relaxing process - by focusing your mind on a hand sewing task, it’s not only providing some healthy time away from your phone (!), but allows you to switch off from the day.
