As 2020 was drawing to a close, another article was written about the impact of fast fashion and the recent Boohoo scandal. Here are some brief thoughts based on Barry Gardner's blog

The article linked to below is  perhaps a good reminder for us all about #fastfashion. Is there something different you or I might do this coming year? A number of years ago I wrote a blog about ‘Wearing your wardrobe‘ inspired by a friend who stopped buying any clothes for a year. It feels like that journey for me is an ongoing challenge- where do we spend our money and why? What can we do within our power to address these kinds of injustice to the vulnerable? How do we get business to go beyond #compliance (or in some cases meet their legal obligations) and ‘do the right thing’. Ending the year is a good time to contemplate changes for the next one on both a personal and business front. With #covid19pandemic not residing there are many challenges lying ahead for us all so lets use what time, talent, resources we have to make a difference to the lives of others in a positive and kind way.
