Do you have clothes you love, but just don’t wear anymore? You can’t be bothered selling them, but you also know that more than 50% of donated clothes end up in landfill - not exactly an earth-friendly option! You probably also want new clothes, but you’re clever enough to know how bad fast fashion is for the environment (not to mention unethical labour practices!)...

Solution: HaBS Clothes Swap! Bring your old clothes that need a new home and take home someone else’s that need re-loving.

Bring your gently used clothes, including scrubs, and swap them for something new-to-you. It's a fantastic way to refresh your wardrobe while reducing waste and keeping clothes out of landfills. Any unclaimed items will be donated to UPPAREL, supporting their mission to recycle textiles.
