Creating change.Connecting Communities.
At Ootsider, we believe that community is not just about where we live but how we connect, support, and uplift one another. Community is built through shared experiences, mutual respect, and a willingness to stand together—especially for those who need it most.
As a Community Interest Company (CIC), we reinvest profits from our changing robe sales to provide sleeping coats for rough sleepers. This is not charity – it’s kindness in action, a commitment to dignity, and a belief in fair access to warmth and protection for all. But our mission goes beyond providing essential garments; it’s about fostering true community integration.
We work with schools, knitting groups, and local community organizations to bring people together in meaningful ways. Whether it’s schoolchildren learning about social responsibility or knitting groups crafting items for those in need, we create bridges between different parts of society. These connections strengthen the fabric of our communities, making them more compassionate, inclusive, and resilient.
At Ootsider, we are not just redefining outdoor wear we are redefining what it means to be a community.
