Do you love fashion, the planet and saving money? If you live in North London, then don’t miss the Stop and Swap online events brought to you by North London Waste Authority in collaboration with eco fashion lovers Love Not Landfill and sustainable clothes sharing and swapping app Nuw.

Stop and Swap is a unique series of online clothes swap events and Instagram Live chats and Q&As with sustainable fashion and eco living influencers, journalists and activists, including fashion journalist Lauren Bravo, author of ‘How to Break Up With Fast Fashion’.

Join us for the first event on 11th November at 6pm with TV presenter and sustainable style queen Sabrina Grant in conversation with activist and style icon Ben Pechey.

Following this at 6.30-8.30pm, take part in the NLWA x Love Not Landfill clothes swap on Nuw, where you can swap good quality items you have fallen out of love with, for gorgeous garments donated by fellow residents. To spice things up a little, influencers and fashion journalists will also be donating pieces to each of the nine swaps – so keep an eye on @connectNLWA for additional fashion gems dropping into the mix.
The innovative events, which run on Wednesdays between 11 November 2020 and 10 February 2021, are aimed at encouraging safe clothes swapping, to keep fashion out of landfill and introduce fashion lovers in north London to the joy of the clothes swap.
