  10. My company runs fashion workshops with a focus on teaching sustainability in the fashion industry along with hands-on practical upcycling/customising skills. The idea is to encourage people to use their skills and creativity at whatever level to add value to their unwanted clothing by changing the garment in some way to increase the wearers attachment to the garment, and therefore the longevity (hopefully they are less likely to throw it away, and more likely to get more wear out of it and keep it!)

    I always reuse materials - mostly clothing that people don't want to wear anymore. Wherever possible I reuse buttons, zips and other fastenings, but sometimes I need to buy new zips and thread.
    If someone is giving any materials/fastenings/elastic/pins or needles away I always try to make room for it in my house - anything to avoid materials being thrown 'away' and into landfil - it is such a waste of resources if this happens.

    Currently I run workshops in schools or other locations, I had a stall at the Camden Green Fair in 2010 and will be there again this year, although now the name has changed to the London Green Fair.
    Setting up stalls around country fairs and festivals would be a good thing - in order to sell small things I have made and encourage others to customise and upcycle their clothing too.Sewing kits are a good way to do this - with instructions to help with a project.
