SWISH: A JOYFUL CLOTHES SWAP FOR CHARITY

A different kind of clothes swap.

Less frenzy. More feel-good.

Swish is about movement.

Moving clothes on.

Moving energy around.

Moving a little closer to who you are now.

WHAT IS SWISHING?

Swishing is a relaxed, community-led clothes swap where you bring good-quality items you no longer love and give them a new life with someone else.

No buying.

No pressure.

No “does this suit me at my age?” nonsense.

Just connection, curiosity and a bit of playful rediscovery.

And yes, all in support of a brilliant charity.

WHY SWISHING WORKS (WHEN NORMAL SHOPPING DOESN’T)

If you’ve ever thought:

“I’ve got loads of clothes but nothing feels right”

“I don’t want to buy more, but I do want something different”

“I’ve changed… my wardrobe hasn’t caught up yet”

Swishing is your sweet spot.

You get to:

Try things on without commitment

Experiment without spending

Let go without guilt

Reconnect with your style in a gentle, human way

It’s shopping without the stress and without the credit card.

WHAT TO EXPECT ON THE DAY

✔ A welcoming, friendly space

✔ Time to browse and try pieces on

✔ A calm, joyful atmosphere

✔ Like-minded humans who get it

✔ A sense of permission to play again

This is not about trends or rules.

It’s about noticing what lights you up now.

WHAT TO BRING

A small selection of clean, good-quality clothes you’re ready to pass on

An open mind

Curiosity rather than expectation

You don’t need to bring loads.

You don’t need to “know your style”.

You just need to show up.

WHO IT’S FOR

The Swish is for you if:

You value sustainability and community

You’re done with panic-buying and sale-rail regret

You want your wardrobe to feel more like you again

You fancy doing something nourishing and different

It’s not about being fashionable.

It’s about being aligned.

THE CHARITY BIT

Your ticket helps raise money for charity, which means:

You get joy.

Someone else gets support.

Your clothes get another chapter.

That’s a win all round.

READY TO SWISH?

Come and swap.

Come and play.

Come and remember how good it feels when getting dressed isn’t a chore.
