Review of Eco Fashion and Clothes Swop Day

 to

Boniface Centre, Crediton EX17 2AH GoogleMap

Over 150 people attended and approx 1000 items of clothing were swapped including some lovely handbags, a gentlemans leather coat we estimate was worth over £200, and a huge variety of tops, skirts, trousers, jackets and dresses. Even a pair of gents very bright, orange trousers formerly belonging to Sustainable Crediton's Chair Gerald
Conyngham found a new home!! 

Lucie Ponsford of Giselle Designs in Tavistock held two well attended Eco Fashion clinics during the day. Sixteen ladies from age 14 to 'mature' brought along pieces of clothing from their existing wardrobes or pieces they had 'swapped' earlier and began adapting them with Lucie's help. Some really lovely clothes began to emerge
and workshop participants went home enthused and with some excellent ideas to refresh their wardrobes. 

Sincere thanks go to all the Sustainable Crediton supporters who came to help. We were overwhelmed by how well the event caught the public's imagination and simply could not have coped without our trusty band. 

If you were not able to attend the event fear not, as we have decided to do it all over again!
