Ways to get involved:
Make a Patch
The coat will be made up of around 300 patches, created by groups or individuals along its journey route and beyond. People’s griefs and remembrances connected to their local landscapes and stories of migration, along with their prayers and hopes for the future, will be stitched, appliqued, felted and painted onto pieces of blanket which will be added to the coat as it travels to the Climate Change Conference in Glasgow.
Become a Pilgrim
The coat needs people to wear it on it's journey!
If you would like to walk any part of the route (5 miles or 50) wearing the coat, let us know.
Be a Patch Gatherer
If everyone is to be included, they have to be invited.
Could you help us to find groups and individuals whose voices you would like to see represented on the coat?
Organise
a Stitching Event
Do you like the idea of bringing people together in your area?
Could you help us organise a stitching stop and welcome for the coat of hopes?
We need people in specific places along the route to make this magic happen.
Support Donate
We need financial support to cover the costs of materials and postage, website (where you will be able to follow the coats Journey once it begins) and travel expenses.
Nobody is being paid to make this happen!
If you feel able we would deeply appreciate a donation towards making this fairytale a reality.
