Rehomed 90 million items

Last year, alongside our parent company Bank and Vogue, we rehomed 90 million items. Its an amount we’re proud of, but that’s only 10% of the UK’s total textile waste last year.

WRAP audited processes

In 2014, WRAP (Waste & Resources Action Programme) audited our processes, and discovered that by recycling and upcycling from second-hand materials, every year, we save: 608 tonnes CO2e and 300,000 m3 of water.

Recycled store operations

In our stores, we recycle in every way we can. From our plastic bags to our packaging, everything possible is recycled and recyclable. We even recycle our cardboard boxes, shipping them around the world and from store to store until they collapse.

Ship by boat

In our buying process, we pick from all over the world and ship our product by boat rather than air, and all of our training tools are shared online rather than printed.
