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!
