Ways to save water…

Small tweaks that don’t feel like effort, but quietly add up over the course of a year…

Keep a water jug in the fridge instead of running the tap until the water is cold… could save up to 10.000 litres in a year

Wee on your compost heap (it’s a powerful accelerator!) … could save around 7,500 litres by not flushing the loo!

The materials used to make clothes, and the way in which these materials are spun, dyed and woven, has a huge impact on the planet. At Community Clothing, they pride themselves on using the finest quality natural materials. They love natural fibres; the way they feel when you wear them .. that they last a long time and get better with age.

And as if super quality at a great price isn’t already a huge enough incentive, you’ll have the added bonus of knowing that your purchase will have created well-paid skilled work right here in the UK - about 20 minutes for every pair of socks, about an hour for a jumper, and about an hour and a quarter for a pair of jeans.
