The Great Big Summer Clothes Swap


On the 7th of July, Centre4 will be hosting The Great Big Summer Clothes Swap between 2.30pm & 5.30pm, organised by Melanie Onn. Events like these are a great way to encourage sustainable practices, save money and upgrade your wardrobe!


“With the cost of living putting the squeeze on people’s finances I thought this clothes swap would be a fun, and cheap way for people to update their wardrobes for summer without having to fork out on as many new things."


One of the best ways to save money is to cut down on spending and with prices not showing any sign of dropping, now might just be the best time to get more thrifty with our shopping habits. We all have old clothing in the backs of wardrobes, stored away and many of us are guilty of letting them sit to collect dust or throwing them out.


Instead, why not bring them to Centre4 Community Hub on the 7th July and see if you can arrange a swap for something you would wear? You might just find your next summer outfit and help someone else find theirs in the process!

Melanie Onn will also be joined by 'No Barriers to Sports Kit' an organisation started by two local schoolgirls which aims to give more children access to sports kits. They will be at the Great Big Summer Clothes Swap giving away donated sports gear.


If people would like to donate clothes beforehand there are collection points at Haverstoe Park Pavillion and 112 Cleethorpe Road. Any items left over at the end of the day will be donated to Women’s Aid and the British Heart Foundation.
