The Great DOLLY Clothes Swap at Beak Brewery

 

Friday 9th September

5-7pm

 

Beak Taproom

Unit 14 Cliffe Industrial Est, Lewes BN8 6JL

​

 

Here’s 3 reasons why we need a clothes swap in September:

 

1. September always stimulates that old Pavlovian need for a wardrobe refresh. We feel it too. But given the fashion industry produces more manmade CO2 emissions than aviation and shipping combined, we’re in the market for an eco fashion fix that won't cost the Earth.

 

2. It’s #SecondHandSeptember! Swapping instead of shopping is the perfect way to get everything you need from basics to blazers and win your #SecondHandSeptember challenge.

 

3. We’ll all be suffering from back—to—work/school shock. Luckily, our hosts for this swap are Beak Brewery. We’ve timed this clothes swap to land at exactly beer-o’clock at the end of our first week back. Clever, no?

 

 

 

Here’s the plan:

 

•    Grab yourself a £6 ticket via Eventbrite CLICK HERE (or pay at the door if you don’t mind queueing)

 

•    Drop off your swaps at DOLLY (3 North Court, Lewes, BN7 2AR) beforehand or bring them with you on the day

 

•    Come to Beak Taproom on Friday 9th at 5pm, grab a beer and browse the collection of good quality clothes looking for a new life. Take home anything you promise to keep in circulation, wear and love *

 

•    Hang out with us after the swap, we’ll be staying on for a couple more brewery-fresh beers with the Beak team.

 

 

 

IMPORTANT NOTE:

 

*  We usually say, ‘bring what you can, take what you like’ BUT we’ve had to put a cap on what you can take because traders are turning up wielding mahoosive bags and sharp elbows. A big part of our clothes swaps is the community aspect, and we’ve worked hard to create a friendly social atmosphere. So, in order to protect that we are putting a cap on the number of items you can take away - anyone showing up with a bag so big it’s a safety hazard will be turned away. Sorry x
