Our Impact
Charitable Giving Statement
At Positive Retail, we are committed to making a positive impact through charitable giving and pro bono services. This policy outlines our approach and dedication to supporting causes that align with our values.
Commitment and Approach
We are proud to partner with Oasis, a domestic abuse charity based in Kent, dedicated to helping victims rebuild safe and positive futures. Oasis operates a charity shop on Northdown Road, Margate, offering pre-loved fashion, accessories, and homewares.
This partnership aligns perfectly with Positive Retail’s mission of reducing overconsumption and fashion waste while helping people feel great in what they wear. The fashion industry is a significant contributor to environmental damage, with excessive clothing production and disposal leading to vast amounts of waste and pollution. By donating unsold stock to Oasis, we are actively reducing the environmental impact of fashion waste, extending the life cycle of our products, and contributing to a more sustainable future.
We believe that feeling good in your clothes fosters overall confidence, which is why we are passionate about supporting individuals who are overcoming the trauma of domestic abuse. To assist in their journey, we regularly donate a portion of our unsold stock to the Oasis charity shop.
Additionally, a percentage of the funds raised from our event ticket sales goes directly to Oasis to further support their invaluable work.
Beyond financial and material donations, we are committed to raising awareness of Oasis's mission. Our goal is to inform more people about their work so that a greater number of individuals can benefit from their services.
We also extend our support to other local charities, such as Rise Up Clean Up, an organisation that organises regular beach clean-ups on Margate’s beaches. Furthermore, we provide pro bono consultancy services to local businesses, focusing on the fashion industry and small business start-ups.
If you are interested in Positive Retail's pro bono services, please reach out to us at hello (@) positive-retail.com, and we will respond as soon as possible.
