Why £5 from every hoodie goes to mental health
The donation isn't marketing. Here's how the £5 per hoodie, £3 per tee, £2 per cap and £1 per sticker is worked out, and why it's built into the price rather than bolted on at checkout.
HHSS started from a simple idea: clothing that carries weight should carry meaning too. Every garment we sell has a fixed donation baked into the price before it ever reaches you.
The numbers
The donation is fixed per item, not a percentage that shrinks in a sale.
- £5 from every heavyweight hoodie
- £3 from every 250gsm tee
- £2 from every cap
- £1 from every car window sticker
Why it's in the price
Optional round-ups at checkout get skipped. Percentages get quietly reduced. A fixed amount, set before you see the price, means the donation happens on every single order — including the ones nobody's watching.
It also means we can't inflate the claim. Sell one hoodie, send £5. Sell a hundred, send £500. The maths is visible.
What it doesn't cover
Refunds are the one exception worth being straight about. If you return a garment we refund you in full, but the Man Down UK donation from that order still goes out. We don't claw money back from a mental health service because a hoodie didn't fit.
