Event Graphics for Good

Turn Waste Into Shelter

At Sheltersuit UK we have a clear humanitarian mission: to protect homeless people against rain, wind, and cold.

 

As Sheltersuit Foundation says, "our products offer more than emergency protection. They are  a first step towards personal healing and more resilient support systems."

With the growing number of people experiencing homelessness across the UK, we’ve been working closely with Spiro and Moss Inc to create "Event Graphics for Good".

We’re excited to announce that we are now ready to repurpose graphics from the events and print industry into Shelterbags – giving used materials a second life and providing shelter and safety to those who need it most.

If you have black back canvas graphics -- getting involved couldn’t be simpler. Check out the guidelines below to see how you can take part.

Together, we can turn waste into shelter.
