Anti-fast fashion event, We showed the film Fashion Reimagined which was hugely popular and at the event we had stands from two local shops promoting reuse and repurposing of fabric. We encouraged attendees to bring an item of clothing and had a clothes swap rail which people could browse and take home a new-to-them item of clothing.
Wildfire Awareness hosted with Scottish Fire & Rescue Service. We had a talk about local wildfire risk, response and community engagement in building the Fire & Rescue Service community asset bank. It was a really engaging and informative session which caught the interest of the community.
