Today, 12th December 2017, young adult cancer support charity Trekstock announce the new winter collection for their Yellow Bird Project – the band tee fundraising initiative to support young people with and beyond cancer. The winter collection, on sale now, features original designs from internationally-celebrated artists including The Libertines, Jimmy Eat World, Taking Back Sunday, Circa Waves, Birdy, Mr Scruff, Architects, Milky Chance and Timber Timbre. All designs are on sale now and are available as T-shirts retailing at £22 and all-new sweatshirts at £30. 100% of all profits go directly to Trekstock. For more information please visit yellowbirdproject.com.

Founded in 2006, Yellow Bird Project was proudly reignited in 2017 in aid of Trekstock and calls on the world’s biggest and best music talent to design one-off, previously unseen artwork for a series of limited edition, collectable T-shirts and sweatshirts. Now a charitable initiative, Yellow Bird Project raises funds for young adults in their 20s and 30s as they live with, through and beyond cancer. The new collection, just in time for Christmas, includes nine exclusive T-shirts with original designs – ranging from hand-drawn illustrations by the artists to never before seen exclusive promotional artwork. What’s more, perfect for cosy winter evenings, the latest range also features seven all-new sweatshirts.

The winter collection joins Yellow Bird Project’s existing catalogue of designs by The National, Wolf Alice, Bloc Party, Alt-J, Everything Everything, Bastille, Bombay Bicycle Club, Bon Iver, Chvrches, FOALS, Hot Chip, Royal Blood, The Horrors, Emmy the Great and many more.

I drew the design for the T-shirt myself, inspired by The Kraken and Fauna, goddess of fruitfulness and spring. I really hope you like it, all the profits go to this great cause to help young adults through cancer.”

When the Trekstock Yellow Bird Project approached us we jumped at the chance to take part in it.  Together, we hope to make the lives of young adults living with cancer a little easier.”

This is our biggest collection to date and we absolutely love the designs. We could not be more grateful to all of the artists and their teams who have donated their time and creativity to make a difference to the lives of those in their 20s and 30s affected by cancer. We hope everyone enjoys the collection as much as we do, and look forward to more exciting launches in 2018!”

About Trekstock and The Yellow Bird Project:

Trekstock provides social and practical support nationwide to young adults in their 20s and 30s as they live with, through and beyond cancer.

34 young adults in their 20s and 30s are told that they have cancer every day in the UK. Thanks to advances in cancer research and treatment, many of these will survive but at what cost? Many of the psychological, social, health & wellbeing and information needs of this group go unmet. Trekstock exists to fill this gap offering a bespoke service nationwide for young adults, as they live with, through, and beyond a journey that doesn’t stop when treatment for cancer ends.

The Yellow Bird Project brings together some of the best artists in the world, to raise money for Trekstock, through the sale of exclusive band tees. 100% profits from each sale directly supports young adults living with, through and beyond cancer.
