Festive Clothes Swap!

WHY SWAP CLOTHES?

Got a wardrobe full of clothes and nothing to wear? We hear you.

1 in 3 women feel their clothes are outdated after less than three wears. We think that’s a waste.

Clothes swaps are the perfect chance to refresh your wardrobe at a fraction of the price while doing something good for the planet.

Join us in making a difference by choosing to swap, not shop.

(20% of ticket proceeds will be donated to the ECO Action Hub for hosting us!)

HOW IT WORKS

Bring up to 10 items of clothing, accessories and shoes to swap. Everything must be freshly cleaned and in good condition.

While we accept items in all shapes, styles and sizes, we don't accept kids’ clothes.

We ask that clothes be dropped off in advance to keep things running smoothly on the day. Drop-off slots are listed below. 👇🏼

We operate using a tiered token system: bronze, silver and gold. We categorise items based on the type, brand, RRP and condition. You will be given relevant tokens in return for your items when you drop them off, which you can use to exchange for items on the day.

THE TOKEN SYSTEM

Bronze = preloved high street or vintage under £50 RRP

Silver = preloved high street or vintage over £50 RRP

Gold = preloved designer, rare vintage or one-off pieces

1 Bronze Token = 1 Bronze Token

1 Silver token = 2 Bronze Tokens

1 Gold Token = 3 Bronze or 2 Silver Tokens

Items will be clearly labelled, so double-check your tokens before heading to the checkout.

DROP OFF DATES AND TIMES

Sunday 23rd November between 12pm - 2pm 

Saturday 29th November between 11am -12pm (1 hour before the event)

Once you’ve bought your ticket, pop into the Eco Action Hub at any of the above dates and times to drop off your items.

Remember to bring up to 10 items only that are freshly washed and in good condition. We’ll categorise your items and exchange them for the relevant tokens.
