In this edition we recap our recent collaboration with the Save Windermere campaign, our collaboration with artist Millie Sandy, along with a podcast recommendation from the team.<\/strong><\/p>

1. We join the campaign trail to end sewage pollution<\/h2>

<\/p>

Earlier this month, we handed the keys to our instagram account to Matt Staniek, who started the Save Windermere. The campaign calls on United Utilities to end their pollution of England's most iconic lake.<\/p>

As islanders, we know first hand how sewage pollution can affect livelihoods, destroy marine ecosystems, and harm the health of coastal communities. When it comes to making clothes, we've developed technology to end waste. We know better ways of doing things are possible. That's why it's important to us to use our platform to highlight the national scandal that is the sewage pollution crisis.<\/p>

Head over to our Instagram to learn more about the Save Windermere campaign and we'd love you to share the posts, spread the words, and join us in ending sewage pollution.<\/p>

2. Rapanui x Millie Sandy<\/h2>

\"MillieWe collaborated with artist and gardener Millie Sandy to create designs inspired by our connection with nature.\u00a0For the Rapanui x Millie Sandy collaboration, Millie created designs that inspire a close connection with nature, calling on us to listen to the stories it might tell.\u00a0<\/p>

3. Introducing organic cotton corduroy to the range<\/h2>

\"Women'sFor Autumn 2024, our product team have introduced organic cotton corduroy to the range.\u00a0With its soft\u00a0and\u00a0durable characteristics, organic cotton corduroy is perfect for layering as the weather cools, offering style that feels and looks great.<\/p>

\"We set out to create a timeless range that's easy to grab on your way out and pairs effortlessly with almost any outfit, ready to wear season after season.

4. A life more wild<\/h2>

If you've read this far, I'll let you in on a secret. As I write this, Rapanui HQ is buzzing with activity. Kit is being packed, maps are being pored over, and ferry tickets are getting booked. The team are heading off to shoot the winter campaign. Somewhere a few hundred miles away from our stomping ground on the Isle of Wight. We're very excited to share all that content with you very soon.<\/p>

Until then, here's a podcast recommendation from the team to get you inspired to take on your own adventure. This podcast episode takes us to the Lake District, exploring tarns, and vast mountainscapes.<\/p>

Our adventure will take us to a similar landscape, but a few more beaches. Anyway, I've said too much. Enjoy the podcast<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>

5. Exploring seagrass with Theo Vickers<\/h2>

<\/p>

Marine Biologist, good friend of Rapanui, and all round legend Theo Vickers took us along for an explore of seagrass meadows around the Isle of Wight. Seagrass is an incredibly important habitat for marine life and helps keep oceans healthy.\u00a0<\/p>

Take a look at the video and learn more about this amazing plant that just a few metres offshore.\u00a0<\/p>

If you have a story to tell about adventure and the outdoors, and\u00a0would love a chance to be featured on our instagram account,\u00a0we'd love to hear from me. You can DM us on instagram.\u00a0<\/p>","urlTitle":"the-circular-edition-2","url":"\/blog\/the-circular-edition-2\/","editListUrl":"\/my-blogs","editUrl":"\/my-blogs\/edit\/the-circular-edition-2\/","fullUrl":"https:\/\/zavqelunrix.online\/blog\/the-circular-edition-2\/","featured":false,"published":true,"showOnSitemap":true,"hidden":false,"visibility":null,"createdAt":1739973381,"updatedAt":1770654744,"publishedAt":1770654744,"lastReadAt":null,"division":{"id":14,"name":"Rapanui"},"tags":[],"metaImage":{"original":"https:\/\/images.podos.io\/cldkxjxsjqkjtpnbus7b6ov7nvgvtstft4bevfaoh8opfnon.jpeg","thumbnail":"https:\/\/images.podos.io\/cldkxjxsjqkjtpnbus7b6ov7nvgvtstft4bevfaoh8opfnon.jpeg.jpg?w=1140&h=855","banner":"https:\/\/images.podos.io\/cldkxjxsjqkjtpnbus7b6ov7nvgvtstft4bevfaoh8opfnon.jpeg.jpg?w=1920&h=1440"},"metaTitle":"","metaDescription":"","keyPhraseCampaignId":null,"series":[],"similarReads":[{"id":31740,"title":"A community united by the sea","url":"\/blog\/a-community-united-by-the-sea\/","urlTitle":"a-community-united-by-the-sea","division":14,"description":"We went for a swim with Madi and fellow dippers to hear about the power of a community united by the sea.","published":true,"metaImage":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/images.podos.io\/eqzwjyk43maagvipnucvf8ik0v1e2086bnhkwintkj80zjsa.jpeg.jpg?w=1140&h=855","banner":"https:\/\/images.podos.io\/eqzwjyk43maagvipnucvf8ik0v1e2086bnhkwintkj80zjsa.jpeg.jpg?w=1920&h=1440"},"hidden":0},{"id":16816,"title":"The Calm Within The Storm","url":"\/blog\/the-calm-within-the-storm\/","urlTitle":"the-calm-within-the-storm","division":14,"description":"We live in the information age and lots of positives come from that.
