‘ RECYCLE YOUR FASHION ’ INITIATIVE TO DRIVE WIDER SUSTAINABILITY CAMPAIGN ACROSS ASHFORD DESIGNER OUTLET
Stepping up efforts to reduce the impact of fashion on the environment , Ashford Designer Outlet ’ s sustainability initiative is set to help guests tackle textile waste and dispose of unwanted clothes responsibly . The centre , which is home to Europe ’ s largest living wall , has a long-standing partnership with CTR Group to deliver a circular recycling scheme with 100 % of the donations reused , re-worn or recycled .
The Recycle Your Fashion initiative is part of a larger corporate social responsibility ( CSR ) commitment for the business which aims to recycle 25 tons of clothing by 2022 / 23 , whilst also supporting local community partners . All of the proceeds from each bag of recycled garments received are donated to the centre ’ s chosen local causes , allowing McArthurGlen guests to make a real difference to their community .
Guests wishing to participate in the scheme are invited to bring a bag of unwanted clothes into Ashford Designer Outlet to receive a 10 % voucher , with a maximum of two bags per person , per day . The voucher can be used across selected brands in the centre and encourages guests to shop consciously , opting for investment pieces with longer product lifetimes instead of fast fashion trend-led items .
Recycle Your Fashion is the latest step towards becoming more environmentally conscious , with centres working continuously towards honouring their sustainability pledge , which further includes initiatives such as electric car charging points , the use of 90 % green energy , sustainable landscaping policies and the introduction of beehives to support biodiversity .
