Ditch fast fashion and recycle with Gunnersbury’s Park Swap Shop and Totebag workshop! Taking place between 2pm and 4pm on Friday 18th February 2022 (last Friday in half term!).
Clear out the clothes jammed at the back of your wardrobe and dust them off for the clothes swap hosted by Gunnersbury’s Youth Forum between 2pm and 3pm. You can also book for a free upcycling tote bag workshop from 3 to 4pm.
Swap Shop
How will it work? Once you sign up, you will get a choice of date and time to drop off the unwanted clothes. Each clothing item = 1 token. We will only be able to provide you with 5 tokens even if you bring more than 5 items of freshly cleaned clothing.
WHAT TO BRING: Clean and good quality clothes. Free of faults or stains
DO NOT BRING: accessories, footwear, socks, underwear, swimwear, shoes. We can refuse any items brought to the drop off that do not meet the criteria.
On the day you will be able to swap 1 token for 1 piece of clothing. If there is another item of clothing that you’ve got your eye on, but you have used up all of your tokens you can purchase a token for £1.
