The Slow Fashion Revolution

What is the true cost of fashion?

ACAN invites you to join us for our next film discussion night on:

Mon 26^th April at 7:30pm

Email altonclimatenetwork@gmail.com  for the link.

Do we need to change our relationship with clothes?

In our consumer society, bombarded with adverts, we accumulate crazy amounts of clothes.  But it doesn’t make us any happier.  More stuff just adds to our stress levels.  And the planet is suffering from “too much stuff syndrome” too.

We will be joined by Anne Sayer of Planet Aware

Anne will introduce the work Planet Aware are already doing to address our addiction to clothing and will answer our questions on the real cost of fast fashion and what we can do to reduce the damage here in the Alton area.

We invite you to watch one or two of the films below before the meeting, to get up to speed with some of the alarming statistics – and some of the possible solutions.
