If you're concerned about the environmental impact of disposible fashion, then SwapAholicsUK could help ease your conscience with their carbon neutral swapping events. Crusading under the mantra 'why shop, when you can swap?' SwapAHolicsUK aim to discourage us from throwing away unwanted clothes, instead 'up-cycling' them into something better.
Having paid a small entry fee, swappers will be invited to have their items counted and exchanged for tokens. Desinger pieces are worth two tokens, so rummage around the back of your wardrobe for high end brands. Tokens can then be exchanged for not just clothes, but books, DVDs, records and accessories. Music, entertainment and treats are often provided, so head down and make a day of it.
