We're on the countdown to the close of the Merrick Scottish Blackface Knitwear Crowdfunder campaign...

As a supporter of the Galloway & Southern Ayrshire UNESCO Biosphere, we're getting in touch with an update on our crowdfunding drive which aims to raise £12.5K for the launch of Merrick, our social enterprise and luxury knitwear brand. We have until 7th December to reach this goal and as in all Crowdfunders, if we don't hit our target all monies are returned to the donors in full. Today we are three-quarters of the way through the campaign, and have raised 55% of our goal.

Please visit our Crowdfunder page, comment, share the link, and donate if you can - every little helps!

Merrick is creating stylish, sustainable outerwear from 100% locally-sourced, Scottish Blackface wool. 100% of profits will go towards Biosphere projects benefiting people and nature in SW Scotland. The clothing range is available to pre-order via Crowdfunder with early bird discounts, and we have exclusive experience-based Rewards on offer as well. There is no obligation to claim Rewards and any donations are very gratefully received.

From the whole GSA Biosphere team - thank you for your support!
