Our Story
OVTOG was born from a simple truth: Blackpool has incredible young people with amazing potential, but too many face challenges that shouldn't define their future.
With over 10,000 families living in poverty in our town, we knew we had to do something different. Instead of just talking about change, we decided to create it - one t-shirt, one story, one young person at a time.
Every piece of clothing we sell isn't just fashion - it's a statement that every young person deserves to be seen, heard, and supported. That's why 100% of our profits go directly into youth-led initiatives.

My work is rooted in accessibility, storytelling, and community. I’ve helped small businesses develop their first brand identity, supported community cafés and grassroots projects with design that boosts their visibility, and created artwork that’s been showcased and sold across Blackpool. I also produce digital content and resources that people use to grow their own creative ideas.
Alongside my design work, I host Friday Collective — a weekly meetup focused on creativity, connection, and making everyone feel welcome.
At the heart of everything I do is a simple aim: to uplift others, share meaningful design, and create spaces where creativity feels open to everyone."
