Facilitated by Deborah Barker South East England Fibreshed with short presentations by Nicci James UNUSUWL and Nick Bullen British Wool Rep for South of England.
In partnership with British Wool, Southeast England Fibreshed, & University of the Arts London: UNUSUWUL has been working on a research project examining how individual breed properties effect both the behaviour and performance of the textiles & products they become.
Merging material science methodologies with design research and innovative manufacturing techniques, this project explores how breed specific narratives could support more equitable supply chain partnerships and circular textile systems within the UK
