Textile Institute launches series of sustainability talks
27/05/2011
On each occasion, two speakers will address the audience. The events are open to all, with members of the Textile Institute paying £10 for admission and non-members £15.
Nottingham will host the first talk, at which social and environmental compliance certification and training organisation WRAP (Worldwide Responsible Accredited Production) will give an update on the UK government's Sustainable Clothing Roadmap, an initiative launched in 2007 to help companies in the clothing industry improve their performance in sustainability.
Later, European not-for-profit organisation MADE-BY will explain its work to make sustainable fashion common practice.
The series will continue with sessions in Bolton on June 14 and Leeds on June 30.
