British tailoring brand partners with Prince of Wale's Charity to help disadvantaged young people

Hawes & Curtis, a quintessentially British brand specialising in fine tailoring and accessories for men and women, has created an exclusive collection in collaboration with HRH The Prince of Wales's charity The Prince's Trust that helps disadvantaged young people to get their lives on track.

The collection consists of limited edition shirts for men and women, as well as cufflinks, silk ties and pocket squares, all featuring the special Hawes & Curtis/ Prince's Trust label.

The youth charity will benefit from the sales of these products and the proceeds will help disadvantaged young people move into work, education or training.

The collection was launched in stores and online on 13 September 2016 and will be available for three months.









Hawes & Curtis CEO, Touker Suleyman said: "We are very proud to support The Prince's Trust in its continuous efforts to give more of Britain's young people the chance to fulfil their potential." Jermyn Street shirtmaker Hawes & Curtis was founded in 1913 by Ralph Hawes and George Frederick Curtis,
The Prince's Trust supports 13 to 30 year-olds who are unemployed and those struggling at school and at risk of exclusion.
Tara Leathers, Director of Fundraising at The Prince's Trust said: "This year we are celebrating 40 years of helping young people move into work, education or training. "

He added that some 825,000 young people have been supported by The Prince's Trust since 1976, founded by HRH The Prince of Wales (Prince Charles) to give alms to 13 to 30 year-olds who are unemployed and those struggling at school and at risk of exclusion.

"But our job is far from over; there are still many young people who need support to turn their lives around. Our collaboration with Hawes & Curtis will raise vital funds for The Trust as we support 100 more young people each day. We are hugely grateful to Hawes & Curtis for creating this very stylish collection and for their enthusiasm and commitment to our work," said Leathers.
