Our members Laura and Lydia invited other members to their Chai Day on 8 December in Chiswick, London. This Chai Day was a unique opportunity to connect with other like-minded people and to have a much loved item of clothing or jewellery mended at the ‘Repair Café’! This innovative Chai Day event was ideal for members working in or interested in sustainable fashion as the day was a delicious gathering around discussion for The Circles two main objectives; ending gender-based violence and advocating for a living wage for workers in the garment industry.
During the day the group discussed Rana Plaza, The Lawyers Circle Living Wage Report and Lucy Siegle’s new book To Die For: Is Fashion Wearing Out the World?
Guests left leaving informed and pleased with their newly repaired clothes and the event managed to raise £100! Well done guys!
