Swap in the name of love

Saturday 6th June

Written by James Tilburn

A ridiculously large turnout from GoodGym at the clothes swap this month with Pete making his first visit and Antonia making a welcome return. Good to see Issy back again as well.

The clothes swap volunteers were also there in force which meant we could enjoy a more relaxed morning than last month's chaos 😁

Lots of fun was had and Pete, Claire and me all walked away with outfits for upcoming festivities.

Swap skip and jump

Saturday 2nd May

Written by James Tilburn

Probably the busiest clothes swap ever with pretty much every resident of York coming through the doors meant that Issy had a baptism of fire on her first time at this task.

Both of us stayed all the way to the end, making sure things went smoothly and everything was put away at the end. There was barely time to stop for a drink but it was great fun as always.

Don't swap me now

Friday 1st May

Written by James Tilburn

Another fun evening setting up the clothes swap. It was great to welcome GoodGym tourist Rachel who joined us from GoodGym Sheffield and got stuck in like a veteran of this task. Unfortunately I forgot to take any pictures.

Job done we headed to the pub for a few well earned drinks.

Going off the rails

Friday 3rd April

Written by James Tilburn

What better way to start the bank holiday than helping get the Acomb clothes swap ready? Ok well maybe there are a few but four of us volunteered to help anyway and had a lot of fun getting the tables out, bringing the rails up from under the stage and making sure everything looked perfect for the morning.

Swap it like it's hot

Saturday 4th April

Written by James Tilburn

The easter clothes swap was very busy so luckily there were four of us this month to support the regular volunteers.

Everyone worked hard to ensure the new clothes made it out onto the rails and everything remained tidy. The task flew by and there was just time to pose with some easter eggs before we headed off to enjoy the bank holiday weekend.
