Remember, It doesn’t need to be in perfect condition as we might be able to repair items on the night or reuse the fabric for craft projects.
 
Please INVITE your friends and family! More folk = more choices of style and size we will have to chose from.
 
Does your favourite clothing need a SMALL REPAIR?
Come along and our lovely sewing fairy will help you repair it the best she can.
 
Clothes Swapping = FREE!
Love charity shopping? Clothing Swapping is even better! more freedom, more fun trying new things with others,
 
Bring along a selection of good quality, CLEAN and gently worn clothing items that you no longer wear (even stuff that might have been going in the bin), to swap for something NEW TO YOU.
Got clothes or textiles needing a wee repair? Bring them along and our sewing tutur Kiki will show you how to mend it to your can wear it again.
 
**All sizes of clothing welcome**
 
Homemade food will be served from 6:30pm
 
How a Clothes Swap Works
* 6:30pm- 7:15pm – Pop in to The Beacon on Hunterfield Road, Donate your items.
Then, browse the rails of gently worn clothes, try on items you might like. and enjoy some food whilst having a blether and a laugh with friends.
* 7:15pm- After everyone has had a good chance to browse the items on offer, everything goes back on the rails…then when we say READY>STEADY> GO! Start swapping! 😉
 
When you arrive we will weigh the items you bring.
Before you leave we will weigh the items you have claimed- These weights are very important as they get recorded as a carbon saving and are then reported to our funders.
