'A small business in Sheffield is giving a new life to abandoned tents from
music festivals by upcycling them into clothes.

Lauren Mason and Benjamin Harman co-founded Retribe after they helped to
collect discarded tents at Creamfields and Leeds festivals last summer.

They gathered 50 tents and 30 sleeping bags on their visits, and felt they had
to act to stop so much waste heading to landfill.

Ms Mason said: "We’re raising awareness so that people stop doing this."'
