CLOTHES-SWAP: BACK AGAIN!

Posted on by

So many of you loved our last clothes swap we’re going again on Saturday 30th November! We’re working with “Saf’s Swap Shop” this time for a festive clothes swap!

EVERY swap of an unwanted piece of clothing extends it’s lifecycle and reduce it’s carbon footprint! Fashion enthusiasts can exchange up to 10 unwanted items for preloved clothes, accessories and shoes for less than £1 per item!

How it works: Bring up to 10 items of clothing, accessories & shoes to swap on the “drop-off” dates. Get your ticket here. Saf’s Swap Shop accepts all shapes, styles & sizes provided they are freshly cleaned & in good condition.

Once dropped off, items are exchanged for relevant tokens. To maintain fairness, there’s a tiered token system: bronze, silver and gold. Items are categorised based on the type, brand, RRP and condition. Swappers receive tokens to exchange for preloved items.

Come to the Swap Saturday 30th 13:00 – 16:00. Go home with a new wardrobe of clothes!
