Pivot Bottle Opener
In March 2020 the UK went into National Lockdown - 49 days after Pivot incorporated as a business. We decided to design a product that people could send to their loved ones during this time of separation and created a “Hug Soon” Bookmark, of which we have now sold over 3000.
This bottle opener pays homage to that bookmark. Made from 2mm Stainless Steel, the hug creates an easy pivot point to prize open a bottle cap.
All proceeds from the sale of this bottle opener will go towards the running of our hostel programmes.
Pivot is on a mission to beautiful jewellery with a difference.
They believe everyone should be given the opportunity to pivot.
Pivot helps those experiencing homeless the opportunity to get out of temporary accommodation through making and enterprise.
They create British handmade goods with a difference. Pivot are a social enterprise which aims to alleviate long-term tenures in temporary accommodation by bringing enterprise and opportunity into hostels. They provide part-time, flexible and meaningful employment for those experiencing homelessness whilst co-designing tailored strategies to help individuals get back into work and into permanent accommodation. Every piece of jewellery bought takes their makers one step closer to their goal of leaving the hostel.
