If we want our world to be more beautiful, kind and fair, shouldn’t our activism be more beautiful, kind and fair?

Founded by award-winning campaigner Ashoka fellow and author Sarah Corbett, the Craftivist Collective is more than an alternative use for craft. Our unique ‘gentle protest’ approach to craftivism has helped to change hearts, minds, policies and laws around the world through our   thoughtful and compassionate actions that provoke reflection and respectful conversation instead of aggression and division.

Craftivism is for everyone wherever you are: from skilled crafters to burnt out activists, introverts, highly sensitive people, people struggling with anxiety and those people who want to challenge injustice in the world but don’t know what to do, where to start or how to prioritise their energies and time.

  • @NorthWestNosh: #craftivism encourages craftsters to engage with activism in our own quiet way. Sometimes the quieter the revolution, the louder it is heard.

  • @storyofmum: I love the project – it’s really inspiring & creative & has really got me excited about activism again in a way I haven’t been since my teens!

  • @tomofholland: @Craftivists shows, inspires and facilitates craftsters to unite their individual creative powers to raise awareness of social issues.

  • @Rin Simpson: My small act of craftivism will, hopefully, go some small way towards changing the world. But more importantly, it has changed me.

  • @PrickYourfinga: At tonight's #craftivist stitch-in we talked about what it must be like to be a politician, and how to activate change in our busy lives.
