We also gained the support of Virgin Startup to further scale our purpose-led business and were invited to meet Sir Richard Branson.

In order to further address the impact of plastic in our environment and to fight green-washing and purpose-washing in other sectors, we launched Project Harmless Fashion, with a range of plastic-free fashion accessorises handmade in Scotland.
