Gail Gravett – Founder of Cumbria Clothing Collective CIC
Go "Behind the Seams" with Gail as she unveils the hidden impact of clothing waste in Cumbria and across the UK. Motivated by the shocking images of discarded garments piling up in the Atacama Desert, Gail launched Cumbria Clothing Collective in January 2025. Discover how her mission is transforming clothing waste—one item at a time.
With over a decade of experience mentoring 100s of local businesses through Cumbria Chamber of Commerce, Gail will share valuable insights for women looking to combine business with purpose.
Carole Greenland – Personal Stylist & Founder of Wardrobe Wake-Up
A key aspect of reducing Cumbria’s clothing waste is to focus on reducing clothing in the first place. Carole's presentation will encourage people to consider their personality and lifestyle and how this is reflected in their style through the clothes that they already own in their wardrobes and how to shop for new items with awareness & clarity.
In 2000, Carole trained as an Image Consultant in both women’s and men’s style and colour. Since then, she has provided Personal Styling through her independent business - Wardrobe Wake-up.
Imagine opening your wardrobe and knowing that everything in it fits you, flatters you, and feels like you. Imagine always being ready on time, looking your best without effort. Imagine walking into a shop and instantly knowing which colours and styles suit you—never again wasting time or money on clothes that don’t work for you and will never be worn. That’s the power of understanding your personal style and colour palette—and it’s what Carole will inspire you to do through her presentation.
