The Courage Collection
I designed the Courage Collection as a testament to the courage shown by those crossing the Channel to find to find safety.
Some of the members of Women for Refugee Women have modelled the collection.
£2 goes to Women for Refugee Women.
Women for Refugee Women
Meet Lilah and Carenza. They are the amazing women that help keep everything running at Women for Refugee Women.
If only charities like this didn’t have to exist.
But as Women for Refugee Women have said, ‘The inbuilt inhumanity of the asylum
system means that women seeking safety are disbelieved by default, heartlessly
detained at random and are often left to ‘live’ in atrocious accommodation.’
Women for Refugee Women empower women,
helping them to find their own voices by offering creative and practical classes,
where they also connect with each other. It’s a true Persisterhood, where friendships
between women offer understanding, recognition and comfort. I’ve been lucky
enough to attend several events with poetry readings and songs. There is no
better way to break down barriers than hearing someone tell their own story.
Perfect for those moments when you need to channel a your inner sailorette - or a bit of extra-courage. Chunky necklaces that weighs practically nothing and goes together great with the earrings.
Beautiful anchor earringsI absolutely love my rose gold anchor earrings. I have had lots of compliments wearing them and for statement earrings they are so light weight to wear. They are fabulous 👌
These are super cool and funky. I love the vibrant red colour. They are the perfect size and very comfortable to wear. Really nice to have the options to choose the colours and whether you want gold or silver. Thoroughly recommend.
About Wear and Resist
Wear and Resist was founded by Sarah Day in early 2017 as a way to channel her frustration and rage at the political climate into a creative pursuit that would raise money for women's charities. Her daughter, Eliza, is her inspiration, model and chain maker. Sarah designs and makes everything in her Oxfordshire studio, with a proportion of sales going to these charities.

Let customers speak for us
great bracelet for my wife, arrived well packaged and in good time! Well made and a lovely design from a great company who make great things!
I love all of my Wear and Resist purchases but these earrings might be my favourite - absolutely adore! Beautiful icy blue colour with sparkle at the end, they made my ears feel special and dressed up!
I love this necklace so much! Will definitely buy more jewellery in the future! Thank you x
I bought this in glittery silver for my sister a she is not backwards at coming forward and it was a total hit! Glittery. Sweary. To the point. Perfect
I loved these earrings so much that I bought all 3 colours!
They are very light to wear and they attract lots of compliments! Totally fab!
Yet another great purchase from one of my favourite independent businesses. I live the colours in this item & the message.
I bought this for myself and I love it (and what wear and resist is all about) It looks good with my other jewellery , it’s nice quality ,the swapable charms are a great idea and I liked it so much I got the necklace too!
I had been looking at getting this necklace for a while, seeing all that is happening with women's rights. It's such a unique and creative design, like wearing art, as well as making a statement.
These look even better than the photos. So sparkly and beautifully different. Comfortable to wear too.
I have received mine. It has a great place in my Westminster office. Its important to register Women's involvement in politics, and this is delightful. Highly recommended.
My third piece from Wear and Resist - check out the sweary necklaces! I don't usually 'do' brooches, but love this one. Good secure pin, light enough to wear on any fabric, and a fantastic tribute to Lady Hale. Currently sparkling on a vintage green velvet blazer :) Highly recommended.
I bought these earrings for my sister who is a lover of walking in bluebell woodlands - she adored them.
Such a beautiful design and so beautifully made.
Thank you :)
Great service, it felt personal and attentive...great card ...looking forward to giving to my bestie!
Thank you Sarah, I love my necklace. Great ideology and fabulous product
Couldn't agree more with the sentiment, and as a last second gift for my sister I didn't expect to get it until after her birthday - but it was posted super fast, I couldn't believe it - thank you (you saved me!). I love the hot pink version, it looks amazing. A brilliant gift for my kick-ass sister.
