Britain Mends: A Petition for a UK Repair Subsidy

We're calling on the UK Government to make clothing and footwear repair more affordable through a British Repair Bonus: a discount at the point of repair for clothing and footwear, plus the inclusion of textiles in the UK's Right to Repair framework. Sign the petition to support local craftspeople and make repairing more affordable than replacing. Britain has always been a nation of menders. But today, fixing a coat or repairing a pair of shoes often costs more than replacing them, and that's pushing tailors and cobblers out of business while perfectly good clothes end up in landfill.
