Description
The Green Team and UWE History Society are teaming up to bring you a Swap Shop. Swap don't shop! It's better for the planet and better for your bank account.
The fashion industry has a hugely negative impact on the environment, swap shops are a great way to have a positive impact. Drop your pre-loved clothing and books to The Students' Union Reception anytime between 09:00 and 16:00 Monday to Friday before the event, or bring them in on the day.
The more clothes and books you bring = the more new clothes and books you can take!
If you would like to help volunteer at future Swap Shops then let us know on the day, or drop an email to thegreenteam@uwe.ac.uk.
