Clothes Swap

Article by Sarah Tolan

Clothes Swap


‘Fashion Revolution’ was founded after the Rana Plaza disaster in 2013. A garment factory collapsed, and the world saw the poor conditions of workers in the factories that made their clothes. Since then, Fashion Revolution has grown to become the world’s largest fashion activism movement. One aspect of this movement is the annual Fashion Revolution Week, to commemorate the Rana Plaza disaster.

To support this, the Student Representative Committee, more commonly referred to the SRC and the Textiles team is organising a clothes swap on Friday the 6th of May.

We ask for students and staff to bring in clothes that they no longer use themselves, but may be useful for someone else. This means, no clothing with irreparable damage and no clothing in young children’s sizes, please keep in mind that someone else will be wearing/repurposing your clothing.

More information will be provided throughout the week, so please check your Xuno Dashboard and emails prior to Friday’s event.

We look forward to seeing you next Friday!
