Event Description
Dig out some clothes you don't wear, and swap them for some new-to-you pieces. It's better for your pocket and the planet!
Here's how it works:
Buy a ticket for £7
Come along to The Playhouse at 6pm on Saturday 18th February, and bag yourself some new-to-you clothing. Have a drink & a dance with a live music from Rebecca Mulhern and a DJ set from The Fully Automatic Model.
Buying a ticket entitles you to take 5 items of clothing until 7pm. After 7pm, you can take as much as you like. This is to ensure that everyone gets a chance to find something great! It's highly recommended you get down early to bag the best bits.
If you have good quality clothes you'd like to donate to the Switch, please contact @environmentaléadaí, or email moyadoogan@gmail.com on Instagram to arrange drop-off/collection. Clothing donations will not be accepted on the night so we can wash & sanitise all items. Donations must be clean, and in good condition - only donate something you'd like to get!
