THE CAMPAIGN FOR WOOL CELEBRATES RETAINING HM KING CHARLES III AS
PATRON OF THE CAMPAIGN
LONDON, May 9, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- The Campaign for Wool is honoured to announce HM
The King remains as The Patron, supporting the Campaign and its
educational activities and events to remind the world of wool's
support for the planet and its natural, renewable and biodegradable
properties.
The Campaign for Wool was HM King Charles's personal initiative
when he was The Prince of Wales in 2008 and was officially launched
in 2010 in a bid to assist wool growers from throughout the
Commonwealth to challenge the rise of toxic synthetic fibres in the
worlds of fashion, interiors and the built environment. As Patron,
over the past decade of the Campaign, the then Prince of Wales has
visited numerous regions of the UK, Italy, Australia, New
Zealand, Canada and
South Africa to engage with wool
growers on how best to explain the distinct environmental
excellence and ecological benefits of wool in all its end
uses.
The Campaign fits perfectly with HM The King's recently
announced personal focus of Climate, Community, Commonwealth and
Culture. Wool is more important today, moreover as climate change
and plastic over consumption hits the headlines on a weekly basis,
requesting all of us to be more considerate in our choices. The
Patron has passionately endorsed the natural benefits and use of
wool, issues he raised on the introduction of mainstream plastic
use in his student days over 50 years ago. Choosing wool will help
to safeguard the planet for future generations.
The Campaign is supported by companies across the globe,
including farmers, the wool processing pipeline, designers, brands
and retailers. 2024 will see the Campaign launch some exciting
initiatives and collaborations for Wool Month which takes place
throughout October.
