Who We Are

Founded by Rakhee Townsend, FADS CIC is a non - profit organisation based in Leicester, that provides dynamic and inclusive workshops designed to provide communities with the skills, knowledge, and confidence to express themselves through fashion.

"With over 25 years of extensive experience spanning all facets of the fashion industry, I have a deep understanding of both the creative and commercial side of the business.

 I have worked with retailers - Next / JD Sports / Asos / River Island / Very / Topshop / Jacamo / Matalan / TK Maxx / WHS / Zalando / HMV

 Brands - Hype / Babbico / Girl Knows All / Phat Kandi / Toikido

 As well as supplying mens and ladies apparel directly to high street stores.

 I want to channel my wealth of knowledge by empowering underrepresented communities through workshops, creating a positive impact on individuals through the art of fashion and design".
