Summary
Help with sorting Workwear, textiles for sale or creative reuse. Cleaning, repairing or altering garment, measuring and making.
Detailed description
Our aim is to ensure textiles and garments do not end up in landfill. We do this by preparing them for reuse. This includes:
Garment or logo deconstructing, unpicking garments, removing logos, sewing pockets
Merchandising, price labelling, sorting, picking, packing and tidying up.
We have a dedicated Textile department called The Hive, because we want it to be full of busy bees saving textiles.
