About
ActForEaling has joined forces with Design-It-Yourself, Ealing Repair Cafe, Falcons Pre-Prep Chiswick, Gunnersbury Park & Museum and OPEN Ealing to invite everyone who lives, works and learns in the Ealing Borough to unleash their creativity, learn new skills, save money and discover their sustainable style with #EalingSewnUp.
In Autumn 2022, the #EalingSewnUp Fashion Show & Swap will be the hottest ticket in town, sign up to our newsletter or follow us on Facebook or Twitter to be the first to access tickets.
Why
Textiles account for nearly a QUARTER of global mixed waste and research shows the fashion industry is the SECOND largest polluter after aviation1&2.
“Dress for true success” is one of our ten steps for a greener Ealing so with #EalingSewnUp we will connect crafters, artists and fashionistas of the borough encouraging everyone to develop new talents and adopt more sustainable and creative fashion habits.
#EalingSewnUp promises to bring flair and excitement to the entire borough of Ealing.
