"The exchange meant 4 volunteers and 2 staff were able to learn first hand the work that goes into developing sustainable fashion and build new connections with sustainable designers. Our volunteers left Edinburgh filed with ideas, future projects and fully inspired for the next chapter of fabrics at Green Hive."
