A Call to Action – a message from the Re-Action Collective
We are bringing the future of high streets to the Better Business Summit with the Alternative High Street! Together, we’ll showcase how to future-proof our high streets through action!
Here’s how you can help bring this vision to life:
We need your broken, torn, unwanted outdoor gear to demonstrate the transformation that can happen when we repair, repurpose, share or donate. We promise to breathe new life into every item brought along. Here’s how:
Repair On the Spot
Bring your torn, broken, or unused sports and outdoor gear, like holey trainers, broken zips, torn or ripped outdoor clothing, for on-the-spot repairs during the summit
Donate and improve
Donate your unwanted sportswear or outdoor gear to:
• Kitsquad: Supporting people on low incomes by redistributing gear.
• Preloved Sports: Offering affordable secondhand sports gear
Repurpose with Creativity
Come along and see how items beyond repair are reimagined and transformed into exciting new gear!
We're thrilled to announce the very first community screening of ACTionism at the Better Business Summit too!

With your BBS ticket you will have free access to the films premier during the Better Business Summit, including a live Q&A session with the Re-Action Collective and their filmmaker Micheal Shaw.
ACTionism celebrates the power of finding your people and taking collective action. It’s a call to move from passive consumers to active citizens, together. The film inspires action, brings people together, and opens up space for big, meaningful conversations.
