Leeds fashion shop launches wool recycling scheme to help people keep warm

A sustainable and slow fashion store in Leeds has launched a scheme to help people stay warm amid the rise of gas and electricity prices.

Tråd Collective, in Headingley, has started a wool recycling scheme after seeing a demand for warm clothing at the store.

Through the scheme, wool from clothing such as jumpers or sweaters that is beyond repair will be deconstructed and remade into new products such as a hot water bottle cover or even patch work blankets.
