Mid Ulster small business owner keen to promote resale and sustainable clothing in community
A small Mid Ulster business which specialises in vintage and preloved clothing is holding a free fashion event at Upperlands Community Centre this Saturday.
Julie Duggan is the owner of Frock33 which offers a consignment service for people looking to give their clothing a second life.
Said Julie: “I am passionate about sustainable fashion and encouraging people to shop more consciously through thrifting and buying preloved.”
She has featured in the local media discussing the resale market and sustainable fashion movement and is keen to continue to promote these values within the local community.
“To help promote this within our community, I am hosting a free preloved fashion event on Saturday, August 1 at Upperlands Community Centre, Kilrea Road,” she continued.
"Also, with the cost of living continuing to affect many families in everyday life, we hope that the event will help people refresh their wardrobes affordably while supporting more sustainable shopping habits.”
The event runs from 10am to 4pm on Saturday.
