Stopped in to see some of our #LovelyLeithers last week… @the_leith_collective are a unique retail space supporting over 130 artists and makers from all over Scotland. Based in Ocean Terminal, Leith, their aim is to change retail into a sustainable way of life by teaching and showing us all that you can buy and still help the planet.
In January 2021 they became single use plastic-free; the first of their kind to do so - really leading by example and embodying their mantra:
#recycle #restore #reclaim #reuse #relove
