Jenkins has more than a decade’s experience in the fashion industry and founded her award-winning adaptive fashion brand, Unhidden in 2016 as part of her mission to normalise universal design through the lens of her own journey with disability. Unhidden launched its first range in 2020 and was the first adaptive brand to become a member of the British Fashion Council and show at London Fashion Week.On collaborating with Primark, Jenkins added: “I am thrilled to be working with Primark as part of my mission to bring affordable adaptive fashion to the high street.“Primark recognising the needs of the disabled and chronic sick community and acting upon it in such a meaningful way is going to be life changing for millions of people, and I am excited to work with Primark to bring this to life.”Around 16 million people live with a disability in the UK and, according to research from Primark and the Research Institute for Disabled Consumers, more than half (59 percent) would buy more adaptive wear if it was available in mainstream retailers.Currently, almost two-thirds (62 percent) of those living with a disability in the UK said it was difficult to find clothes they feel comfortable and happy in because of their disability, health condition or impairment.Adaptive clothing aims to accommodate the comfort and access needs of a wide range of disabilities, chronic health conditions, age-related needs and post-operative patients through adapted fastenings and openings, as well as design changes.
