We’re thrilled to share that we’re partnering with award-winning adaptive designer and disability advocate, Victoria Jenkins as part of the next stage in our journey to make Primark a more accessible place to work and shop, which includes making adaptive fashion more accessible and affordable.   With over a decade of experience in the fashion industry, Victoria is dedicated to normalising universal design through her personal journey with disability. As the founder of the award-winning adaptive fashion brand Unhidden, Victoria has been recognised by British Vogue in its annual Vogue 25 list and named the second most influential disabled person on The Shaw Trust Disability Power 100.   Back in January we launched our first adaptive underwear range – we’ve learnt a lot from that first small collection and we’re now excited to collaborate with Victoria to accelerate our mission of bringing affordable, adaptive fashion to the high street. Stay tuned for more details on our plans later this year. #Primark #adaptivefashion

We’re working to support and enhance the lives of the people in our supply chain, starting with those who make our clothes.    The workplace can play a valuable role in opening discussions around mental well-being to help remove stigmas and support the improved wellbeing of workers and managers alike. Our My Space programme in India: https://lnkd.in/eSSySWwD, in collaboration with St John’s Medical College, Bangalore: https://lnkd.in/eXCYTmye, is an example of the way that we can drive behavioural change and extend support for mental health to the workers in our supply chain.   My Space supports the establishment of basic counselling services in factories to help those struggling with mental health issues by training of selected factory staff by medical professionals from St Johns and engaging with workers and managers to reduce the stigma around talking about mental health.   You can read more about programme in Primark Ethics and Sustainability Progress Report: https://lnkd.in/edmUCVHA #Primark
