BY popular demand, Ealing Broadway’s free Clothes Swap is back this weekend (17-18).
Visitors can donate pre-loved clothes at the pop-up shop next to Flying Tiger on Saturday 17. All sizes of adult and children’s clothing are accepted, providing they are in good condition.
In return, donors receive a maximum of five tokens to spend on Sunday, choosing from the selection donated the previous day.
The initiative took place at the centre four times last year and continues to prove popular as a sustainable way to recycle unwanted clothes and update wardrobes at no cost.
It is run in partnership with Love Not Landfill and has already attracted nearly 4,000 items. Timings are:
Saturday, February 17, 10am-4pm: drop-off pre-loved clothing outside Flying Tiger and receive tokens to spend the next day.
Sunday, 10am-4pm: visitors can peruse donated items, taking home a maximum of five using their tokens.
Andrew Rollings, centre director at Ealing Broadway, said: The response we've had to previous Clothes Swap events has been incredible. We want to make this year bigger and better, with even more people donating and swapping pre-loved items."
