New sustainable fashion initiative in Oswestry

Borrow clothes from Oswestry Library

Based in Oswestry, With Love From... is on a mission to reduce the environmental and ethical impact of fashion.  We are encouraging people to slow down in their shopping habits, repair, re-wear, share and care for the clothing that already exists. Currently, With Love From... is a community project but we are in the process of registering as a CIC.


There is enough clothing on the planet to dress the next six generations.  We started by creating a shared wardrobe in the town, encouraging people to donate items in exchange for points which can be spent within the shared wardrobe. On average, British women hoard £285 worth of unused clothing - this equates to over £34 million worth of unused purchases in Shropshire alone. Our shared wardrobe already holds more than 600 items.


 Since November we have started a very exciting collaborative project with Oswestry Library where library card holders will be able to borrow an outfit from our shared wardrobe, in the same way you might borrow a book! You can find out more on our website, or pop in to the library and you can pledge your support on our SpaceHive page.

If you would like to participate, volunteer or find out more, please email us at: contact@shropshireclimateaction.org
