Episode 6: Suzi Warren

Sue Mayo
Designer and Maker Suzi Warren is a co-founder of Twisted Twee, designing, making and upcycling clothes with a satirical twist. Suzi created 'Stitch it Don't Ditch it', initially by setting up a chair outside a fast fashion shop and sitting and mending, to start conversations. This gentle protest has now grown, with lines of menders snaking down high streets across the UK. Suzi is looking for 1000 menders to do 'Stitch it Don't ditch' it along Oxford Street
