Event Description

Rewind in time, how did fast fashion evolve? How do we stop it now?

Malvern Green Space explores the issue of fast fashion, the impact on the planet and creative ways of making sustainable fashion.

Malvern Green Space is about people coming together to give their time and share their skills –  ordinary people joining forces to create projects and events that help our community thrive.

We’re here to support each other in difficult times, working cooperatively to make things better in Malvern, while always focusing on the Earth, our life-support system.

Everyone is welcome to be part of Malvern Green Space, whoever you are, wherever you are from.

We all know there’s a global problem. We see floods, heatwaves, wildfires, droughts, melting icecaps and glaciers, lakes drying up. We know animals are going extinct, insects which pollinate our food crops are dying out, birds and butterflies are under threat, coral reefs are dying.

What harms the planet, also harms people. For example, climate changes create more extreme weather, so we can’t grow as much food. So food becomes more expensive and harder to get. This triggers wars.

We know how urgently it must change, but what can we do? It’s easy to feel powerless, or pretend it’s not happening. But it IS happening, and we CAN do something, if we act together.
