Glasgow the Caring City has a Green Policy which influences all areas of our operations, at home and overseas. We believe in strong environmental ethics, education and operation.

Textile recycling represents a significant part of our charity operations and here’s why:

• Reduce the environmental impacts of textile production including demands of fossil fuels, production of greenhouse gases and demand for virgin materials.
• Mitigate circumstances which increase the risks of children falling in to forced labour, within the textiles trade
• Reuse high-grade clothing for humanitarian purposes.
• Recycling through ethical enterprises waste items which cannot be reused
• Reduce the overall volumes of waste to landfill and demands created by textile consumptions.
