Sail Sourcing

As part of my third year project I have decided to use old unused sails to create my collection with. I had to source some sails to start with so I contacted a few companies to see if they had any available. Wivenhoe Sailing Club got back to me and said they had some sails I could have. I visited them and a lovely gentleman gave me 4 huge sails. I offered to pay for them but he donated them to me free of charge. I feel I dealt with the situation very professionally as I would if I were contacting and meeting with a client in industry. Overall this experience was really helpful developing my confidence liaising with people and helpful to source a few sales ready for second semester.
