Description
What to expect
Join in with the Green Team and 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 us an email thegreenteam@uwe.ac.uk.
Drop in anytime between 11:30-15:30 to swap your items on the day, you'll find us near The Students' Union reception (Frenchay).
How to sign up
Just turn up on the day!
