I know that this is a HUGE ask and a long shot but we have to put this plea out there, just in case...
We run a small clothing design studio located at Tenterfields Business Park. The flood has totally wiped us out, we were submerged to chest height and have consequently lost pretty much everything, all of our machinery, fabrics, trimmings & stock. As we were also badly hit in 2012 our insurance company will not pay out a penny. We have been in business for over 20 years now and we are determined that this will not be the end! Our only hope of staying in business is to start again at the bottom. With no insurance cover though we have to rely on donations to get started again. The items that we need are very specialist but somebody may be able to help, or know where we could go to get help?
We desperately need industrial sewing machines (flatbed, overlocker, fluter, buttonhole etc) Fabrics, Trimmings, Pattern Card, Office equipment, Mailing supplies etc. Big ask I know :(
We also have loads of garments that we could possibly salvage if we can get them dry cleaned. Last time our insurance company took care of this. Does anybody know if there are any cleaners that can offer cleaning on bulk lots?
