5.5million people are living in clothing poverty in the UK and yet we throw away 140million worth of clothes every year.
Sol Escobar is a social entrepreneur and founder of an award-winning, tech-for-good social enterprise, Give Your Best, offering the first circular platform where people and brands can donate clothes so that refugees and other communities living in clothing poverty can shop online for free, with the choice and dignity they deserve.
Sol shares with us the moment that changed the course of her life when she volunteered at a refugee camp in northern France. She talks about the importance of connecting and deeply listening to the people with lived experience of the problem that you want to solve.
So if you’re feeling frustrated, hopeless, or angry, this episode will help you think about how you can channel that energy for good. If you’re also somebody with one or two things in your wardrobe that don't fit you anymore, that you keep thinking you'll take to a charity shop and keep forgetting, keep listening.
