The Courage Collection
I designed the Courage Collection as a testament to the courage shown by those crossing the Channel to find to find safety.
Some of the members of Women for Refugee Women have modelled the collection.
£2 goes to Women for Refugee Women.
Women for Refugee Women
Meet Lilah and Carenza. They are the amazing women that help keep everything running at Women for Refugee Women.
If only charities like this didn’t have to exist.
But as Women for Refugee Women have said, ‘The inbuilt inhumanity of the asylum
system means that women seeking safety are disbelieved by default, heartlessly
detained at random and are often left to ‘live’ in atrocious accommodation.’
Women for Refugee Women empower women,
helping them to find their own voices by offering creative and practical classes,
where they also connect with each other. It’s a true Persisterhood, where friendships
between women offer understanding, recognition and comfort. I’ve been lucky
enough to attend several events with poetry readings and songs. There is no
better way to break down barriers than hearing someone tell their own story.
Perfect for those moments when you need to channel a your inner sailorette - or a bit of extra-courage. Chunky necklaces that weighs practically nothing and goes together great with the earrings.
Beautiful anchor earringsI absolutely love my rose gold anchor earrings. I have had lots of compliments wearing them and for statement earrings they are so light weight to wear. They are fabulous 👌
These are super cool and funky. I love the vibrant red colour. They are the perfect size and very comfortable to wear. Really nice to have the options to choose the colours and whether you want gold or silver. Thoroughly recommend.
About Wear and Resist
Wear and Resist was founded by Sarah Day in early 2017 as a way to channel her frustration and rage at the political climate into a creative pursuit that would raise money for women's charities. Her daughter, Eliza, is her inspiration, model and chain maker. Sarah designs and makes everything in her Oxfordshire studio, with a proportion of sales going to these charities.
Solar powered! 🌞
We are in the process of making our home and workshop self-sustaining. Wear and Resist is now running on solar power.
Let customers speak for us
Takes me back to being a little girl in my Princess Leia slippers, when life was much much simpler. Over the last few years, I’ve learnt to hold onto hope and this necklace is a lovely reminder that no matter how dark things get, there is always hope that things will get better.
I love these earrings so much, and so it would seem do others if the compliments are anything to go by - from friends and colleagues to the lady in the Costa drivethru window!
Lovely and lightweight and guaranteed to make me smile
Absolutely love this necklace and earrings - with the added bonus of being able to (s)wear at work! I also wore these last night at a Paloma Faith show and had several compliments from random strangers! Thank you for yet another fab, fun design Sarah x
I love my eyecatching Wear and Resist piece. It arrived unbelievably quickly, and beautifully packaged. THANK YOU SO MUCH! Come on ladies: Wear and Resist!
This looks gorgeous. So lovely to wear as a choker. Gives glamour to any outfit. Love it!
Love love wearing these with my statement necklace ❤️
I proudly wore my "VOTE THEM OUT" badge to the polling station last week - so happy it arrived in time! I will keep wearing it until we have a half decent government - or at least one I'm not utterly ashamed to have (supposedly) represent me!
Great way to channel my rage and to prompt discussion to encourage people to vote, whatever their personal politics.
Bought as a gift and the recipient absolutely loved them.
Absolutely love this necklace and matching earrings. Well made and cultured, even approved by my wonderful French friend.
Wanted these earrings for a couple of years, finally treated myself and they do not disappoint. Delicate and pretty but still very much present. Love!
Featherlight earrings with an iridescent sheen. Whats not to love?!
Go on and treat yourself. You know you want to!
Love my beautifully made anchor earrings which I bought for myself for Mother’s Day. Will post a pic as soon as I wear them. I’m saving them for a mini cruise in Amsterdam with my fav group, Track Dogs.
This is the second pair of flower earrings I have purchased, first the cherry blossom, now the snow drops- they are just as stunning. Surprisingly light to wear considering the size, and many comments asking where I have got them from!
I have several Wear and Resist pieces which I absolutely love and this is no different! Such a lovely colour and I love the message so much!
