Can’t shop? Then swap!


One woman’s trash is another woman’s treasure – there is no greater proof of this than the clothes swap, which in recent years has been sending fashion lovers into a frenzy. On Wednesday, 15th December, Chernobyl Children’s Project are hosting a clothes swap party upstairs in Revolution, Fallowfield in what looks set to be a fantastic afternoon filled with as much fashion, fun and festive frivolity as you can manage.

For the clothes swap virgins, the concept is very simple: turn up to one of our afternoons with garments, shoes, accessories and any other items you no longer wear and you will be given points in exchange, and make a suggested donation of £3.50 for your ticket. The greater the number and quality of the items, the more points you receive. Then come along to the party on the 15th and start rummaging!

If you need a new Christmas outfit, but the loan disappeared long ago, why not swap last year’s sequinned ensemble for a new on-trend lace one? Swap as many items as you can and bag yourself a whole new wardrobe even. There will also be a complimentary nail bar to finish off your new look. And the best bit? Clothes swapping is environmentally friendly, and it’s for a good cause. All proceeds go towards helping to care for children suffering with cancer and other illnesses in Belarus as a result of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster. Snaps all round.

Exchange items for points upstairs in Revolution, Fallowfield on the following dates: Mon 13th Dec 4.30 – 6.30pm and Tues 14th Dec 5.30- 7.30pm.

Clothes swap party Weds 15th Dec, 3-6pm.
