THE GREAT WEA SWAP SHOP

After fundraising for the City Mission Education last year we'd like to continue our support with this thrifting fundraiser! Join us for our now infamous Swap shop!
So how does it work? It’s so simple! Just drop off any good quality unwanted items you have at home (clothes, homewares, books etc - no large items please!) at the designated times before the event. When you drop them off they will be sorted by our team of volunteers, and you will be given tokens. On the night we will gather over a cup of tea whilst we sort any last-minute drop offs, before we declare the Swap Shop open and you will be able to spend your tokens and ‘purchase’ any of the items on display! It’s a great chance to have a clear out.
Love this idea so much that you would like to help at it? Please email Lottie at [email protected] if you would be interested in volunteering on the night or during the drop off times below.
Please drop your items to us at 59 Gloucester street at one of these times:
- Thursday 18th June from 1pm – 4pm
- Friday 19th June from 10-4pm
Please note: No large items (furniture etc); good quality, cleaned and pressed items only please. We are not able to accept items prior to these dates as we don’t have room to store them! We suggest a limit of one largish bag of items per person.
