Charity Chic is an initiative of St Andrew’s and St George’s, the landmark city centre church. It aims to promote the importance of ethical and eco-friendly fashion and to demonstrate that constructive consumerism – clothes with conscience - can be chic
Charity Chic supports:
reducing exploitative clothing consumption through ethical, fair-trade and eco-friendly initiatives;
reusing clothing by supporting charity shops and by using vintage and second hand clothing for charity fundraising events;
recycling clothing by reworking it into new designs and uses
Thanks to everyone who made our 2010 EcoFashion Fair such a success. If you'd like to keep up to date about future Charity Chic events email us at charitychic@standrewsandstgeorges.org.uk and we'll do our best to keep you in touch.
