Save the date for this month’s Fashion Roundtable book club: a monthly read on fashion, craft and policy.
October’s pick is Charity Shop World by award-winning investigative journalist Tansy Hoskins.
Charity Shop World is a personal account of sorting through donations to reveal the entanglement of people and products. The book also investigates the export of clothes to overseas markets and landfill, revealing hidden shareholders behind a multi-million pound business. Taking us to the heart of a country hit by austerity and the cost of living crisis, it reveals surprising places of human connectivity.
