Common Thread Challenges Fast Fashion and promotes slow fashion; Swapping is better than Shopping! Through our community Clothes Swaps we aim to collectively Reduce the amount of clothes we buy, Re-wear lightly used clothes, Re-use wearable clothes we are finished with, Re-style and Repair Clothes which are unsuitable or damaged, ReCycle clothes which are beyond Repair.

Setting up for the event, keeping the event running smoothly, packing down the event. Lots of carrying Swap kit and "furniture" between floors, and carrying suitcases and boxes and bags of clothes up and down stairs from storage to event space and back again.

There are different volunteering times available. See next paragraph. The one they need most help with this pack down on Saturday 3.30pm-6.30pm so I'm listing that time.

As we usually only volunteer for a max of 2 hours with goodgym on a community mission, please do what you need, and I've mentioned this to them.

Other times you can volunteer: Friday 26th April between hours of 6pm til 8.30pm Saturday 27th April hours between 10.30am and 6.30pm. We most need help on Saturday 27th 3.30pm til 6.30pm.
