Ringo Starr × WaterAid: Peace, Love & Water

Beatles legend Sir Ringo Starr has teamed up with WaterAid to launch a limited-edition collection marking World Ocean Day. Available online for eight weeks only, every purchase raises vital funds for the international charity and helps shine a light on the global water crisis.

The Octopus's Garden songwriter collaborated with WaterAid and creative agency Friends Of The Planet on an exclusive design: a vibrant pop-art portrait capturing Ringo's iconic look, signature moustache and glasses included. It's a celebration of the vital role clean water plays in everyday life, and a cause Ringo has championed for many years.

The design is available across t-shirts, hoodies and tote bags — and 50% of profits from every item sold go directly to WaterAid's work bringing clean water, decent toilets and good hygiene to communities around the world.

A Message from Ringo

"Clean water is a basic human right and everyone, everywhere should have access to it. That's why I support WaterAid and this exclusive design, available on a range of merchandise for a limited time only. The money raised will go towards their clean water projects around the world. Real change starts with water — together we can make a difference. Peace, love and water."
