In addition to regularly contributing to industry panels including ASBCI, Anne has also been involved in a number of recent consultations with global denim manufacturers, workwear companies, leading online retailers, upcycling designers, reuse and recycling companies, and sustainability NGOs. <\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-44b9da9 elementor-shape-circle e-grid-align-left elementor-grid-0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-social-icons\" data-id=\"44b9da9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"social-icons.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-social-icons-wrapper elementor-grid\" role=\"list\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-grid-item\" role=\"listitem\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-icon elementor-social-icon elementor-social-icon-user-alt elementor-animation-grow elementor-repeater-item-b8075c0\" href=\"https:\/\/www.northumbria.ac.uk\/about-us\/our-staff\/p\/anne-frances-peirson-smith\/\" target=\"_blank\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-screen-only\">User-alt<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"fas fa-user-alt\"><\/i>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-grid-item\" role=\"listitem\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-icon elementor-social-icon elementor-social-icon-linkedin elementor-animation-grow elementor-repeater-item-55d1834\" href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/anne-peirson-smith-61972314\/\" target=\"_blank\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-screen-only\">Linkedin<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"fab fa-linkedin\"><\/i>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-f9a24dc elementor-section-content-top elementor-reverse-mobile elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"f9a24dc\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-wider\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-66 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-7948e6a\" data-id=\"7948e6a\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b869047 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"b869047\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-small\">Co-Investigator<\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6650594 elementor-vertical-align-top elementor-widget elementor-widget-image-box\" data-id=\"6650594\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image-box.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image-box-wrapper\"><div class=\"elementor-image-box-content\"><h3 class=\"elementor-image-box-title\">Dr. Miranda Prendergast-Miller<\/h3><p class=\"elementor-image-box-description\">Miranda is an Assistant Professor at Northumbria University in <br>the Geography and Environmental Sciences Department.
