Welcome to FASH Repair

FASH Forward is on a mission to save 1 million items from landfill by 2030. FASH Repair is a project to accelerate this mission. Launching in UCC and MTU for semester one, with the support of Cork City Council.

The FASH Repair Library aims to make the skill of clothing repair accessible to everyone on campus, by empowering students and staff to repair clothes already in our wardrobes with repair kits linking to demo videos.

This will help create a positive impact for the environment and reduce waste to landfill! There are enough clothes on the planet for the next six generations according to the British Fashion Council (2023).

Discarded clothing results in millions of litres of water and energy from production and transportation going to waste.

Keeping clothing in circulation through repair means the resources that were used to produce them don't go to waste.

Thank you for being part of the FASH Repair community, together we can drive positive change in the fashion industry!
