Lindsay graduated in fashion in 1996, and has worked in the industry since then. Her work has included her own label Child, which involved a shop on Carnaby Street, and concessions in Debenhams. She has a passion for design and for fair trade, and whilst still working as a freelance designer, she is enjoying this new venture which brings both her passions together.

Rachel Veldtman Director
Background: Textile Designer

Rachel had an interest in fair trade even at the age of 17 choosing her degree course in Textile Design on the advice of a fair trade organisation she was then keen to work for. The down turn in the economy in the early nineties resulted in Rachel completing a PGCE in Art and Textiles. For the last 12 years she has thrived teaching in Inner City London schools. She has maintained her interest in fair trade by supporting small business ventures in the 3rd world and buying fair trade products wherever possible. This venture is the fulfillment of a long held hope and dream.
