White Rose
Stellify Award: This opportunity is part of 'Make a Difference'
Organisation Description: White Rose Pre-Loved Fashion was established as a social enterprise in 2009 by two creative Nottingham Trent University graduates who were truly inspired by the work of Aegis Trust.
White Rose is a charitable organisation with retail locations in Nottingham, Beeston, West Bridgford, Sheffield, Leeds, Leicester, and Derby.
At White Rose, we raise funds by collecting, sorting, and selling pre-loved clothing. All net profits from our collections are donated to the Aegis Trust, which works towards the prevention, prediction, and ultimately the elimination of genocide.
This is achieved primarily through research, education, and the dissemination of information and advice. In addition, we’re driven by a distinct purpose to reduce fast fashion’s impact on the environment, reduce textile waste, and encourage our customers to make kinder choices when it comes to purchasing and repurposing clothing.
