June brings National Environment Month, with the South African government and captains of industry leading the way by stimulating awareness of environmental issues and challenging all to become agents for change.

The environment encompasses the surroundings where individuals, animals or plants live and operate, and is significantly influenced by human activities. World Environment Day, observed every year on 5 June, aims to raise awareness and promote actions to safeguard the environment.

In Cape Town alone, 70 000 tons of textile waste overwhelms landfills annually. Recognising the urgency, Thurtell repurposes this waste into clothing, accessories and decor, demonstrating a profitable model. Rooted in Cape Town’s vibrant skater culture, Peaches Skateboarding is passionate about giving back to the community. Through their deck exchange initiative, they donate functional skateboards to Ziyaad’s Skate School in Hout Bay.

In the past, Peaches Skateboarding have donated old un-skateable decks to Dave of SkateShades, who repurposed them into funky sunglasses. This collaboration not only reduced waste but also supported a creative local business.Labels for Less is a thrift store founded by Melanie Spickernell that sells good quality pre-loved goods plus end-of-range items.
