Denim and clothing remakes: a community organisation project

The problem. Worn clothing is thrown out when the fabric is still strong. Who it helps. A charity or community organisation delivering it, helping people who want to learn to make with discarded materials. What you start with. Worn clothing and denim. What is delivered. Pieces are unpicked and remade into bags, aprons or holders. Your organisation leads delivery with support from the Deals Colony team. How progress is known. Items remade are counted. A short summary is shared with your board or members, with names and personal details left out. Main purpose. The main purpose is access to a useful product or service, or less waste going to landfill, for the community. Honest limits. Different fabrics need different machine settings. Ownership of your idea stays with you, and no job, funding or contract is promised. Track record. This is a new idea built on work Deals Colony has already documented. It has not been run yet.
