Fundraising limited edition t-shirts from Evening Standard for the Dispossessed Fund

We all love a bit of sartorial politicising, so what better way to show our solidarity with London than with our clothes?


Following ES Magazine?s landmark London United issue, which paid tribute to the city?s resilience in the face of tragedy and the recent terror attacks, the magazine is launching a series of t-shirts to raise money for the Evening Standard?s Dispossessed Fund.


Partnering with t-shirt manufacturers Everpress, the five iconic covers by Antony Gormley, Anish Kapoor, Jamie Hewlett, Wolfgang Tillmans and Ai Weiwei will be reproduced on t-shirts and are available to buy for ?25 each.


Seventy per cent of proceeds will go directly to the Dispossessed Fund, a charitable fund run in partnership with the London Community Foundation. The remainder will go to Everpress to cover the cost of production.



For each t shirt bought, ?18.75 will go straight to helping the local people living in your community- whether that?s the children at your local school, the pensioners you pass on the street every day or the survivors of the Grenfell Tower tragedy.


As these are limited edition, be sure to snap up your favourite ? or all five - before they run out.


For more information, pick up a copy of this week's ES Magazine.

Hi IlonaM,


Just in case you haven't realised, you have repeated your post twice :-)


Are you part of this initiative? Wondering if you know where the other ?6.25 goes. Does it go to the Evening Standard?

Thanks for pointing that out! No, I'm not part of the initiative, I just thought it was rather a good one and wanted to spread the word. Have bought an Ai Wei Wei t-shirt myself. As for where the ?6.25 goes:

    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
    • CPR Dave, attendance records are available on Southwark's website. Maggie Browning has attended 100% of meetings. Jon Hartley has attended 65%.
    • I do hope NOT, wouldn't trust Farage as far as I could throw him, Starmer & co.  He's backed by GB News which focus's predominantly on immigration while the BBC focus predominantly on the Israel - Gazza conflict.
