Forge Fashion was a free business support and networking programme for fashion and textiles businesses in the London Borough of Waltham Forest, delivered by Creative United in partnership with Waltham Forest Council and The Fashion District.
The Forge Fashion programme (October – December 2020) was created to support fashion and textile businesses to thrive sustainably – both environmentally and financially – during Covid recovery and beyond, through workshops, one-to-one advice and networking.
If you are interested in networking opportunities or to find out more about fashion in Walthamstow, be sure to follow the Hive Collective and Waltham Forest Fashion.
