About Fashion Against Violence


Fashion Against Violence began as a pilot initiative in Latvia —and is now growing into an international movement. We’re proud to bring this powerful project to the United Kingdom, where our mission remains the same: to raise awareness about the urgent issues surrounding women’s rights and to turn everyday actions—like donating clothes—into meaningful change.

This initiative supports charities that work directly with victims of domestic violence, human trafficking, and other forms of abuse.

By donating, you’re not only helping reduce fashion waste—you’re standing with Centrs Marta - one of the main regional NGO's in Baltics and Eastern Europe. Centrs Marta provide life-saving support and advocate for a future where every woman and child can live free from violence.

Why your donation matters?



Your donation does more than declutter your wardrobe—it helps transform lives.

Every kilogram of clothing you give supports women and children who have been victims of domestic violence and human trafficking. Your contribution helps fund critical services like safe housing, trauma counselling, legal support, and economic empowerment programs. These resources are often the difference between returning to danger and building a secure, independent future.

At the same time, you’re helping the planet. By keeping reusable clothing in circulation, your donation promotes sustainability and reduces waste in the fashion industry.

Take action today.

Click “Register Donation” to start the quick and easy process. With over 11,000 DPD drop-off locations across the UK, making a difference has never been simpler.

Together, we can turn unwanted clothes into second chances—and make fashion a force for good.
   





When you participate in "Fashion Against Violence", you’re creating positive change on two fronts:

01.


Environment: Your donation keeps clothes out of landfills and in use for as long as possible. Reusing good-quality clothing reduces waste and helps us all live more sustainably.

Every box donated is a step toward a cleaner, more conscious world.

02.

Gender equality: Each donation helps fund vital services for women and children escaping violence. From trauma counselling and legal support to job training and shelter, these programs help victims rebuild, recover, and thrive.

For many women, this support means the difference between staying trapped in danger and building a safe, independent life.
