What to bring to the Cheltenham Clothes Swap
Garments that are:
• Clean and folded or pressed
• Likely to be valued by others
• Not piled, stained or ‘pongy’
• Free from faults or with minor faults that are easy to repair (e.g missing buttons)
• No longer your favourites, you must be emotionally detached!
Please note:
We cannot exchange underwear, swim wear, track suits, fleeces or exercise wear.

If you don’t know what to bring then the following wardrobe weeding guidelines might be of help:
- Take out any items of clothing and accessories that you haven’t worn for the past two years.
- Place the worn out and ‘sad’ items in one pile and decide if they can be recycled or not.
- Place the good condition but no longer ‘happy on you’ items in a different pile, and bring these with you on the night.
