We have loads of pre-loved clothes available, just waiting for a new home.
Women’s clothing, men’s clothing and children’s and baby clothes.
Bring along good quality clothes you no longer want and take away something new!
Share ‘n’ Wear offers a great way of allowing you to reuse clothes rather than them being wasted.
Items that don’t fit you might fit someone else and those that you have got bored of might be someone else’s exciting new outfit!
We ask that you record the weight of clothes that you donate or pick up so that we can calculate how much carbon we are saving by sharing clothes rather than throwing them away! If a volunteer is staffing the shop they will do this for you!
Nothing to swap – no worries – just take what you need (although to be fair to everyone we do have a limit of 10 items per person).
We don’t want people donating items that they would otherwise happily continue wearing just because they feel they should donate something. And we don’t want people to go without a necessary item just because they have nothing to swap.
You can find out more about volunteering at Share ‘n’ Wear on the Volunteering Page of the website.
