UK, 25 Aug – A range of MapAction clothing and gift items is now available to supporters of the charity.

MapAction has partnered with Spreadshirt.com, a leading online retailer of quality clothing. The MapAction online shop has a carefully chosen range of items inspired by the charity’s work in disasters and based on the field gear worn by its volunteers and staff in humanitarian crises around the world.

Items can be delivered almost anywhere in the world, using Spreadshirt’s sophisticated order processing ‘back office’. For every item sold, MapAction receives an average commission of 15% which goes directly to funding the charity’s emergency mapping service.

Darren Connaghan, one of MapAction’s operational volunteers, said: “We only get issued the blue shirts for field work, so I’m a bit envious that our supporters will get to wear a whole spectrum of colours to put the MapAction name out there. And Christmas isn’t that far away.”

The online shop is at www.mapaction.spreadshirt.co.uk.
