✨ The secret’s out: Made by Care — Designed by Leah ✨
Some of you may have already spotted the collection in stores or seen my story being shared, but I wanted to take a moment to share it here myself 💛
I’m beyond proud to finally introduce my collaboration with John Lewis — the Made by Care collection. This has been a year and a half in the making, and keeping it a secret has honestly been my biggest challenge yet! I’ve been so excited to tell you all about it.
As a care-experienced teacher and designer, I had the incredible privilege of working with the in-house design team to bring this collection to life. They chose my wildflower artwork, which represents resilience, strength, and the beauty of growing freely — qualities that reflect my own care journey 🌿
The collection includes a tote bag, scarf, and even a jigsaw puzzle — each designed to be meaningful and thoughtful gifts this season. You’ll also find my poem featured on some of the packaging, which is such a special touch for me.
Every product in the Made by Care collection supports the Building Happier Futures programme, with all profits donated to the John Lewis Partnership Foundation 💚
You can read my story and shop the collection via the link in my bio.
And this launch feels especially meaningful as we mark the first ever Care Experienced Month — I’m so looking forward to sharing more with you over the coming weeks, what each piece represents and my journey as the Creative Designer of the MXC 2025 Collection.
