With the Tour of Britain going straight past the shop I thought it would be a good idea to create my own tour based around the Dewerstone shop.

We're out on the boat, sunglasses off, scuba gear on, ready to drop down to the sea bed.. it almost sounds idyllic, until you know we're hauling up tyres!

It's been almost 8 years since dewerstone first opened its doors. Over the years a lot has changed that's for sure, however one thing hasn't changed, and that is we still screen print every garment in house.

As we move into our 5 years of working with Organic Climbing, we figured we'd take this time to talk about our collaboration and why we ultimately chose to work with them 👊 

We're working directly with the community in Gili T to keep track of, package and deliver our food parcels. But we can't do it all alone, we're working closely with the @chilicommunityhouse to deliver food aid to those most in need 💚

It's now been a month since we reached out across our platform to start our initial Buy a tee - feed FOUR families in Indonesia campaign. Many that have followed our story know just how successful we were in raising over 1000 Food Packages!

The trip sounds simple, drive north. So far north that you can see John O Groats pointing toward the Faroe islands and beyond, then the hiking begins. 

Working directly with you and the local communities in Lombok, Indonesia, we have made a real difference and have managed to directly support 4350 people, provide 1087 food parcels and much more. Thank you.

Over 2 weeks ago we reached out across our platforms to ask you to buy our Tees, with the the catch being 100% of sales go towards buying and distributing food parcels in Lombok, Indonesia.

Buy a t shirt - feed FOUR families in Indonesia for a week 🙏

Covering everything from where the word 'dewerstone' comes from, what started it all, what we're doing now and where we're going in the future. Theres even a giveaway in to an exciting new retail location.. and WAY more!

International whitewater freerider Bren Orton take a visit to the majestic basalt stone walls of the Batoka Gorge and the mighty Zambezi river. 

It's a world class destination and challenge to all kayakers who visit, but in rainy season it is something else.

How we can make better decisions in the way we live? From the way we shop to the way we educate the young. If we can change some of the ways we are used to doing things, we can make positive changes in the world around us. 

Bren Orton helps us stay mentally and physically agile so we can keep paddling past the boredom syphon in these rocky times!

I was briefed on some theory, some of which I had learned before, some was new to me and some was broken down to mathematical formulas’ and physiology. As always, with everything, there is more than meets the eye.

Despite the lack of events, this may turn out to be a year where events develop themselves the most. Taking the opportunity to look outside the sport for inspiration. 

It has also been a chance to recharge the batteries, top up event excitement, and maybe even come up with some ideas for future events

The project has been advancing rapidly throughout the last few weeks and the destruction of the landscape in preparation of the dam is now clearly visible from the road.

Genuinely I think the Life Shorts 2.0 are the best board shorts on the planet.

Stylish, versatile and eco friendly. What’s not to like?

It won’t take hours on a computer to support the organisations fighting for things you care about, following their social media accounts and staying up to date with how to help is a good way to start and often it will take just a few short minutes signing a petition to help.

The most important thing is to stand up and be involved.

The short answer is that in this mad man made world of ours, the river cannot protect itself. 

Just because a river is in a National Park, does not make it safe from development. 

Achieving Carbon Neutral certification isn't just a part of our image or a marketing campaign, it is part of our core values and the foundation of how we operate as a business.
