The Importance of Handmade: How Our Bracelets Support Both the LGBTQ+ and Disabled Communities

In a world where mass production often takes precedence over personal touch, RCREW stands out by embracing the beauty and significance of handmade craftsmanship. Our signalling bracelets are more than just accessories; they are symbols of identity, pride, and connection. But there's an even deeper story behind each piece we create – a story that intertwines the LGBTQ+ community with the remarkable staff at Watford Workshop, a UK-based charity supporting individuals with disabilities.

 

At RCREW, we are committed to fostering connections both within and beyond the LGBTQ+ community. This commitment led us to partner with Watford Workshop, where each of our bracelets is meticulously handcrafted by talented individuals who take immense pride in their work. This collaboration not only enriches our products with a unique and personal touch but also supports the livelihoods of these amazing people, empowering them through meaningful employment.

By choosing our handmade bracelets, you are not only expressing your pride and identity but also contributing to a broader mission of inclusivity and support. Every bracelet purchased helps bridge communities, fostering serendipitous connections for LGBTQ+ individuals while providing valuable job opportunities for people with disabilities. This dual impact makes each piece of jewellery a testament to our collective strength and solidarity.

Handmade items carry a special energy and authenticity that cannot be replicated by machines. When you wear an RCREW bracelet, you are wearing a piece of art crafted with care, dedication, and a deep sense of purpose. You are joining a movement that values visibility, connection, and the power of personal touch. Together, we are building a more inclusive and supportive world, one bracelet at a time.

This Christmas, we want to say thank you—to every LGBTQ+ person who refuses to be invisible, who shows up authentically, who makes space for others. 2025 tested us with DEI rollbacks and political backlash—2026 may bring more challenges. But we've survived worse. We're recommitting to solidarity, visibility, and supporting each other through what comes next.

"You're just confused." "Pick a side." "You're going through a phase." If you're bisexual, you've heard it all. Here's the truth: bisexuality is attraction to multiple genders. It's not confusion, not a phase, not "half and half." It's the largest group within the LGBTQ+ community—and it's time we talked about it properly.
