When you see articles like this about Chile's Atacama Desert and the huge amounts of imported clothing dumped - great dunes of it you just have to wonder how this became so out of control and how we can be so wasteful.So if you were given something for Christmas and it doesn't fit or bought something online - remember to do something about it before it is too late!  So much clothing is bought online and then neither worn or sent back.Choose carefully and then love what you have so you can enjoy them for longer:https://www.loveyourclothes.org.uk/care-repairand there are more.Ealing also has a couple of repair cafes for clothes:https://ealingrepaircafe.org/Kingston Transition's started up when someone realised that there were parents who could not sew buttons back on their children's school shirts.
