Pivot also offer a twelve week program for all those living in UK hostels. This provides residents with the creative training needed to produce Pivot's amazing jewellery. This is co-created alongside temporary accommodation providers. These Pivotal Programs are tailored to improve the experience of those living in temporary accommodation through re-engagement, an increased sense of self-worth and ultimately higher move-on rates from hostels. They offer all their makers the opportunity to learn new skills through the process of design, marketing and selling jewellery. 

It is Pivot's mission to help re frame the conversation surrounding homelessness and to give all their employees the chance to learn new skills, and provide momentum, creativity and opportunity.  

“I now have a different perspective for the future. I feel much more creative and have found that I am able to things I never thought I could do. I absolutely love working with the team and the positive energy we all get from one another. The whole concept has been inspirational.”

We are so excited to have Pivot's amazing jewellery available both in store and online too! Keep an eye out for loads more features from Pivot in our Gift Guides & newsletters too!
