Donations of colourful cotton fabric
Can you help out? We need donations of colourful cotton fabric to help out our volunteer sewing team. Our team learn valuable sewing skills while transforming leftover or unused cotton fabric into beautiful tote bags. We sell these bags to help fundraise for our crisis food relief and subsidised lunches. Thanks for your support and sharing.
Please call 99372144 or drop the fabric in to 81-91 High Street Preston.

At Breathe Easy Bags, we believe that we can change the world for the better while we change people's lives. After all - isn't that core to being a social enterprise. Join us in making a better world, one bag, one life at a time.
