Clothes Swishing Evening

When, Where…

Clothes Swishing (Swap) Evening – Wednesday 26 June, 6.00 pm – 9.00 pm at St Stephen’s Church (Belle Vue Road, Cinderford, Forest of Dean).

What…

A swishing evening is a fantastic way to update your wardrobe. It’s fun and doesn’t cost a fortune. It’s common knowledge that women in the UK have a serious obsession with shopping! In fact 50% of all the products we buy are clothes. On average, we throw away 30kg of unwanted items, per person each year. Not only is this damaging to the environment but it’s damaging to our pockets as well!

We’ve all bought things in the past that we’ve never worn or have outgrown one way or another, and now’s the time to swap them for something that you’ll love to wear! Or you just fancy changing a few pieces and want to socialise for an evening.

It’s the perfect opportunity to swap any unwanted garments and pick up some new clothes.

If you’ve never been Swishing before here’s how it works:
– Sort through your clothes and bring along some clean clothes in good condition. (They don’t have to be new, but they should be something you’d be pleased to take home.)
– When you arrive your items will be swapped for tickets, the tickets can then be exchanged for other items once the swish begins!
– If you run out of tickets during the night and see something that you would love, extra tickets will be available to purchase on the night.

Items can be brought along between 6.00 pm and 7.15 pm. The swish will start at 7.30 pm. If you would like to drop off items ahead of time, please contact Rachel at rachel@cinderford-churches.org.uk to arrange a suitable time.
