Our Black Friday Donation

Black Friday has never really been our style. Our priority has always been to make timeless clothes that stand the test of time. And so, after the success of our previous Black Fridays, we continue our efforts to support our chosen community organisations for 2024.

Between Thursday 28th November (00:01 GMT) and Sunday 1^st December (23:59 GMT), we will donate 10% of net sales on fredperry.com and in our UK, Netherlands, France, Germany and UK ‘Fred Perry’ shops, to be split equally between four community organisations: The Music Venue Trust (UK charity no. 1159846), Blueprint for All (UK charity no. 1102267), Amy Winehouse Foundation (charity no. 1143740) and Museum of Youth Culture C.I.C. (UK Community Interest Company no. 09680751).

In 2023, thanks to you, our total donation over the long weekend came to £74,791, giving our community organisations over £18,000 each.

These organisations reflect our values of independence and diversity, and we are proud to have an ongoing relationship with each of them.
