The challenge

Low wool prices meant rams that do not breed were often slaughtered.

The idea

Rams that showed no interest in ewes were moved to a shepherd's farm and their wool spun into premium yarn for fashion. Promoted with a celebrity launch, social, press and outdoor, all proceeds supported the LGBTQ+ association LSVD+.
