Stigma around second-hand clothing going in right direction

A local woman is on a mission to remove the stigma that still exists surrounding second hand clothes.

Caroline Van den Berg, the co owner of the Wild Wardrobe in Cavan Town says there has been a shift in the right direction when it comes to that stigma. There are now two stores from the non profit organisation in Cavan Town and they also have an online presence.

The wild wardrobe is the only store in the country that raises money that supports Irish wildlife. Caroline says the support they have received since the doors opened 5 years ago has been immense.

She says the money raised allows them to assist a huge number of wildlife throughout the year locally and across the country.

Meanwhile, Caroline says there are so many benefits to buying pre-loved clothing and people are now realising that.
