About us
Report
We're a social business. That means that we are motivated by our cause and not by our bottom line. And our cause is to do good things for great UK charities and our planet. We are the UK's largest fully licensed, commercial clothes collection company because we take pride in what we do. Since 1996 we've worked alongside big, small, national and regional charities with equal gusto because we believe we have a lot to offer.
History
Report
Our inspirational founder Laurie Hollande turned his back on Law studies in London after graduating and decided to follow a more nomadic path. He packed up his old Merc and drove through Afghanistan and Pakistan soaking up the mystique and adventure.
After also traveling through America experiencing so many cultures and fashions, upon his return in the 70s, his enterprising business mind led him to opening vintage clothes stores across hip West London.The public demand was high for Victorian nightdresses, granddad shirts and beaded 20s flapper dresses.

Facts on clothes recycling
Report
The UK could save around 3billion per year from the cost of the resources we use to make and clean clothes if we changed the way we supplied, used and disposed of clothing. This would reduce the carbon, water and waste footprints of clothing consumption by 10-20% each. We Great Britons send 700,000 tonnes of clothing to recycling centres, textile banks, clothes collections and to charity each year.
Our industry comrades
Report
We keep good company by working side by side with some of the UK's leading authorities in fundraising and textile recycling. We spend deserved time lobbying for better standards in the collection industry because we feel it is integral part of our protecting our partnerships with charities and the public.
