WHO IS THREAD TOGETHER?

Thread Together is a world first organisation that works with Australian fashion brands to drive social and environmental change. They help those in need by managing fashion excess, distributing surplus clothes to people who are doing it tough - the highest ethical response to this potential waste.

The service solves two problems – protecting the planet by saving clothing from landfill and helping vulnerable people, restoring dignity and choice by giving them access to new clothing using 4 simple methods:

1. Fleet of mobile wardrobes nationally

2. Clothing hubs offering an authentic retail experience

3. Online store sending orders nationwide to over 500 charities and social service partners

4. In-partner accommodation wardrobes

KEY STATISTICS

13.4% of Australians are living below the poverty line, equating to around 3.2 million Australians.

1 in 8 Australian adults and 1 in 6 Australian children do not have access to adequate essential clothing, which we believe is a basic human right.

A wardrobe of clothing consists of around 20-35 items, depending on the circumstances of the individual.
