Jo-Tutchener-Sharp: A brain hemorrhage changed my life – so I built a fashion empire with a purpose
In this episode of Tash Talks TV, Tash sits down with Jo Tutchener-Sharp, founder of Scamp & Dude, to discuss how a life-changing health scare led her to build one of the UK’s most loved purpose-driven fashion brands.
Jo shares:
- How a brain hemorrhage and life-threatening surgery inspired her to start Scamp & Dude
- The story behind superpower-infused clothing and how it empowers customers
- Growing from a children’s brand in Liberty to a thriving women’s fashion label
- Why giving back is at the heart of the brand, from donating over 45,000 “Super Scarves” to women undergoing chemo to supporting children facing serious illness
- How she balances business growth, family life, and building a community of loyal fans
From launching in Liberty just months after brain surgery to expanding Scamp & Dude into major retail stores, Jo’s journey is a testament to resilience, purpose, and the power of building a brand with heart.
