With spring in full bloom, it's the perfect time to breathe new life into your wardrobe. Bid goodbye to those neglected pieces and embark on a journey to refresh your style without breaking the bank or harming the environment. 

New clothing has a huge environmental impact (accounting for around 10% of global carbon emissions). This is because of the carbon associated with activities along the supply chain – from growing or creating fibres, transporting goods and packaging items.  

The Sustainability Teams of UoL and UCL collaborate to bring regular clothes swap across the academic year, open to all students from the Intercollegiate Halls in addition to the UCL community.  

About this event: 

  • Date: 26/04/2024 
  • Time: 10:00-16:00  
  • Location:  Ground Floor, UCL Student Centre, 27-28 Gordon Square, London WC1H 0AH  
  • Price: Free (just bring some items to swap) 

How it works:  

1. Bring your preloved clothing 

2. Browse and select: When you find something that catches your eye, it's yours to take home! 

3. Loyalty Card: Didn't spot anything you fancy this time around? No worries! Grab a loyalty card instead. With this card, you can return to a future swap event and have another chance to find something that suits your taste. Our inventory is always changing, so there's bound to be something perfect for you eventually.

We need your help...
