A study carried out by Recycle Now states that only 16 perfect of unwanted textiles are reused in the UK. The study also states that 63 percent of clothing goes to landfill, with only 39 percent of pollers considering the impact of throwing away clothes.

Oxfam and Recycle Now are working together to encourage people to wear more of their wardrobe and to recycle items they do not wear, instead of simply throwing them away.
