Description
Join the Green Team for a Swap Shop. Drop your pre-loved clothing and books at 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 clothes and books you can take.
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.
