Wakeup Campaign presents ‘Swhop shopping’. A social occasion happening for one weekend at the end of August held in Britain’s most influential theatre Battersea Arts Centre. People can bring in their old clothing and exchange them for others, all free!
In the UK we throw away a staggering 1 million tonnes of clothes a year, 7.5 billion ends up in landfills so don’t throw it away, swhop it!
Wakeup Campaign has teamed up with brands such a People Tree, Izzy Lane, From Somewhere, Junky Styling and more to promote sustainability, recycling and ethical fashion.
The event will showcase clothing customisation - giving clothes a new lease of life in a creative way, clothes competition, cool products for sale, topped up with good music, drinks and nibbles.
Venue: Battersea Arts Centre Lavender Hill, Battersea, London, SW11 5TN
Date: August 28-29
Time: 5pm-11pm (the clothes swapping will take place between 6-8pm)
