How our clothes swap works:

• Bring your good quality clean pre-loved clothes. Please don’t bring anything that needs to go straight to recycling / the incinerator

• We’ll help you put your clothes out on the tables and rail for others to see

• Have a look and find some clothes to take home

• Book online or drop in. NB: Booked tickets will get priority entry at busy times. If the event reaches capacity there may be a short wait for entry.

There will be a bar with alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks for sale. All are welcome. Please spread the word!

This Circular Saturdays event is part of ONCA’s Dresscue Project, encouraging creative practices in making, mending and up-cycling to extend the life of clothing.

Circular Saturdays

Circular Saturdays is a series of free-to-attend repair, reuse and upcycling workshops for Brighton & Hove residents. Events form part of the ‘BLUEPRINT to a Circular Economy’ project and are funded by the EU Interreg programme. This wider project provides practical solutions for designing out waste and pollution by reusing, repairing and recycling existing resources.

The events are run by local organisations and individuals who have a special interest in the circular economy. Workshops cover a range of subjects, including mending clothes using hand sew techniques, learning how to maintain and fix your bike and the skills involved in the restoration of old wooden furniture.

Circular Saturdays are free-to-attend workshop-style events and are taking place in central Brighton venues between October 2022 and March 2023.
