We’re delighted to share our new Safety Net merchandise, created through a collaboration with Gift Campaign.

Earlier this year, we were given the opportunity to choose a selection of branded products through a £500 collaboration credit from Gift Campaign. After exploring the options available, we selected three products that we felt would be practical, useful and meaningful for our charity and the communities we work with.

And now, they’ve arrived!

More than just merchandise

We wanted our merchandise to do more than simply carry our logo. Each item has been designed to reflect the messages at the heart of Safety Net’s work.

Our new recycled cotton shopping bags feature the words:

“Because you can’t carry everything alone.”

For us, this message captures something incredibly important about our work. People affected by rape, exploitation, sexual and domestic abuse should not have to navigate their experiences alone. At Safety Net, we provide trauma-informed support, information and therapeutic services to help people move towards recovery.

We also created A6 notebooks featuring our “Your story matters” message and an illustration representing the people and connections at the heart of our work.

Every person’s experience is different, and we believe that every person’s story deserves to be heard, respected and supported.

Our notebooks will be used across our community engagement, events, fundraising activities and partnership work, helping us to share this message wherever we go.

Small reminders of a bigger message

Alongside the bags and notebooks, we also chose branded stress balls, featuring the Safety Net logo and “Your story matters.”

These practical little items will be useful at events and when engaging with our community, while also providing a simple reminder of the importance of looking after ourselves and reaching out for support when we need it.

Together, the three products give us a collection of merchandise that we can use throughout the year, from community events and fundraising activities to meetings, outreach and partnership work.

We’d like to say a huge thank you to Gift Campaign for supporting Safety Net through this collaboration.

Their £500 merchandise credit has enabled us to create a collection of practical, high-quality items that we can use across our work, helping us to raise awareness of Safety Net and share our messages with the wider community.

We really appreciate their support and the opportunity to work together.

We’re looking forward to putting our new merchandise to good use!
