APPG for Ethics and Sustainability in Fashion, Houses of Parliament Nov 2023

I was invited to speak at the All Party Parliamentary Group for Ethics and Sustainability in Fashion at the Houses of Parliament, organised by the APPG secretariat Fashion Roundtable.

You can hear a summary of the whole event and the full speech that I gave on the importance of localism, transparency, and ethical practices in the fashion industry on Episode 276 of the Make it British Podcast.

In the full speech, I highlighted the challenges faced by UK manufacturers, the need for skilled workers, and the potential for a thriving local manufacturing supply chain.

You'll gain insight into the current British manufacturing landscape and discover how small businesses are leading the way in ethical and sustainable production.

The APPG meeting was chaired by John MacNally MP and the secretariat for the APPG is Fashion Roundtable, led by Tamara Cincik.
