Boden and HERproject: a powerful partnership
We believe everyone who makes clothes for Boden should have a great quality of life, and one of the ways we help make this a reality is through our partnership with HERproject™. We’ve been working with this amazing organisation since 2014 to educate the women in our workforce about nutrition and health. Knowledge is shared through peer-led training and spread beyond co-workers to families and local communities.
So far, our partnership’s reached nine of the factories where we make clothes, supporting over 5000 people, with 140 training to become a peer educator. We're continuing to partner with HERproject on further programmes so we can have even more of a positive impact across our global supply chain.
