Why shop second-hand?

What you buy has never been more important. The fashion industry is one of the worst offenders for greenhouse gas emissions. Meanwhile, people who have done the least to cause the climate crisis are facing the very real consequences. Shopping and donating second hand this Christmas is one step we can all take towards building a better, safer, fairer world.

I will be shopping at Oxfam this Christmas because I’m the Queen of rummaging and finding amazing, preloved treasures. I think it’s a great way to find something very unique for someone that you love. I’ve selected a gorgeous purple scarf to give to my Mum. She loves purple, it’s her favourite colour. The scarf cost £2.99.”
