Emma Hague is the Founder of South West England Fibreshed, Bristol Textile Quarter and co-founder of Bristol Cloth.
With an academic background in political and economic anthropology and indigenous rights, her work over the last 15 years has been at both grassroots and global policy levels. The combined environmental, social and political motivations of the Fibreshed movement marry her academic interests with a lifelong passion for textiles, clothing and artisan products.
Emma lives on a 12 acre smallholding and together with her husband is a new entrant to farming, grazing Galloway cattle on conservation sites in Gloucestershire.
