Super inspiring tour of the TRAID warehouse today, where all items donated through donation bins, home collections and unsold stock donated by brands are sorted through by hand.
90% of clothing processed by TRAID is diverted from landfill or incineration by being resold through their shops and wholesale, redirected to other charities in need of clothing donations, used in artist and university collaborations, or recycled into building materials.
In the UK, an estimated 300,000 tonnes of clothes are sent to landfill or incineration each year. If you laid those clothes flat, end-to-end, they would form a fabric path long enough to wrap around the Earth 18 times.💀
After our last swap, we sorted the clothes left over at the end of the night, keeping some pieces for our next event and putting together a donation for TRAID. It was lovely to see where our donation goes in real life and the care that goes into sorting and handling each item.
Thank you to TRAID for having us today 💚
