Singer and Barnardo's 2025 Sustainable Sewing Challenge

Are you a fashion student or recent graduate with a passion for sustainability and style? Singer has teamed up with Barnardo’s to bring you an incredible opportunity, the 2025 Sustainable Sewing Challenge! Here’s why you’ll want to get involved:

 

What’s the Challenge?

Design and sew an upcycled garment, putting sustainability at its heart.

 

Who can get involved?

It’s open to fashion students and recent graduates looking to make a statement through their creativity

 

What’s at Stake?

  • The top three designers will be invited to a VIP reception hosted by Patrick Grant, judge of The Great British Sewing Bee, where their creations will be showcased.
  • Each winner receives a Singer Heavy Duty 4423 sewing machine, an ideal companion for future sustainable fashion projects.

 

Why Barnardo’s?

Every garment submitted will find a new home and a loving owner because ALL entries will be donated to Barnardo’s. Whether in charity shops or online, these upcycled garments will help raise vital funds.

 

Join the Movement

This unique collaboration is a win–win: students get to express creativity, winners receive tools to continue their craft, and Barnardo’s receives hand‑crafted garments that support essential services. It’s fashion that truly fashions a better future.
