How can textiles become more sustainable?
In this lesson, we will learn how people have become mass consumers of 'fast fashion'. You will also learn about how attitudes to fashion are changing to be more environmentally friendly. Please note this lesson will require some additional equipment, beyond a pen, pencil or paper, to fully participate. Please see the equipment slide near the start of the lesson video and make sure your child is adequately supervised if equipment is required.
