DAVE LINTON / MADLUG

Dave Linton is the founder of MADLUG, a company he set up in 2015 after he discovered how many children in care carry around all of their possessions in a bin bag. With a “buy one - gift one” purchase model, customers have helped to give over 15,000 bags to date to children in care in the UK & Ireland. Each bag produced has a label that says “You are incredible” to remind every child that they have value, worth and dignity and during the lockdown, MADLUG has created an activity book for young people.
