CLOTHES-SWAP: BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND #3
SWAP DON’T SHOP! £30 million worth of clothes sit unworn in the UK’s wardrobes* so why not swap them? We are working again with “Saf’s Swap Shop”, with another clothing swap event in our Hub with the main Swap on 30th November!
Why a 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!
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! NB: This is a swap for adults’ clothes, we may run a children’s clothes swap at a later date.
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 30th from 13:00 – 16:00. Go home with a new wardrobe of clothes … !
What happens next? Once dropped off, items are exchanged for relevant tokens. For fairness, there’s a tiered token system: bronze, silver and gold. Items are categorized by type, brand, RRP and condition. Swappers receive tokens to exchange for preloved items.
