Our Swap Shop started working in July, and has been open every Tuesday and Thursday since in line with the EWfC food support opening hours. We have diverted a total of 1009.7 kg of clothes and accessories going to land fill between the 21st of July till the 8th of December. This is a carbon saving of 28.1 Tonnes. 

The Swap Shop has been a life saver to many ethnic minority people that did not have any warm clothing or bedding. It helped a lot families to get ready for a cold winter. 

It has also gave a very great opportunity for people that have been having a clear out during lockdown and needed to donate their clothes. 

Swap Shop became a place where everyone could exchange positivity, good emotions and help each other.
