REDUCE THE STIGMA

Mental health is so important, especially in these times we’re living in, but it is still a hard topic for a lot of people. Reduce The Stigma Jewellery (RTS) is a new jewellery brand created with the hopes of starting conversations around mental health.

RTS was made by someone who is not only close to the subject, but has their own personal battles with it, and that’s what really cements the sincerity in this project. 

‘When people find out I have a mental illness they treat me differently,’ said the owner and hands behind this project.

Each necklace, bracelet, earring, and ring is uniquely and authentically handcrafted with a signature RTS tag engraved or attached to it. 

With every piece in the collection ranging from only $5-$10 at most, the brand aims to reach out to young people in particular to let them know it’s okay if this is a battle you are facing.

‘I feel it is important for young people today to be taught the tools of mental illness to carry with them throughout life.’

A percentage of the proceeds from the sale will go towards designing a Mental Health Educational Program for adolescents about stigmas.

Affordable fashion with a worthy cause? Yes please!

It’s time for a change, and RTS wants to be a stepping stone in that process.

Check out some of the collection below and you find them at Reduce The Stigma Jewellery on Facebook if you’re interested!
