£30 million worth of clothes sit unworn in the UK’s wardrobes* so why not swap them? We are working with “Saf’s Swap Shop”, a new clothing swap event launching in our Hub with the main Swap on 28th September!
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!
Shop other people’s wardrobes and help reduce excess clothing waste. You’re not just swapping but upgrading clothes from ones you don’t wear to ones you will!
How it works!
Bring up to 10 items of clothing, accessories and shoes to swap. Saf’s Swap Shop accepts all shapes, styles and sizes provided they are freshly cleaned and in good condition.
Bring your clothes in to the Hub on the “drop-off” dates, and come to the Swap on Saturday 28th from 13:00 – 16:00. Go home with a new wardrobe of clothes … !
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.
This first event is adult-only. Children’s clothes swaps will take place at future events.
