Swish & Stitch Uniform Hub
About this Event
About this event
Kids grow fast — and school uniforms grow expensive. Our free Swish & Stitch Uniform Swap is a simple, friendly way to pass on the uniform your children have outgrown and pick up the next size up — all for free.
Bring along clean, good-condition uniform you no longer need, and take home what fits. No money changes hands, nothing goes to waste, and every family leaves with a little less to buy.
How it works
- Bring clean school uniform in good condition (any local school).
- Take what you need — you don't have to bring something to take something.
- It's completely free, and everyone's welcome.
What you can bring
Jumpers, cardigans, shirts and polos, trousers, skirts, pinafores, PE kit, coats and shoes — washed and ready to pass on.
Good to know
- All ages and families welcome.
- Any uniform left over will be donated to Southport Uniform Hub , so nothing is wasted.
The bigger picture
This swap is part of Swish & Stitch — Southport, our project helping families reduce clothing waste and keep clothes in use for longer. Textiles are one of the UK's fastest-growing waste streams — but the greenest uniform is the one that gets a second life. Swish & Stitch is funded by the Merseyside Recycling & Waste Authority (MRWA) / Veolia Zero Waste Community Fund 2026–27.
