Bio Eco Swap for Movember

Event details

Friday 21 November 2025, 11am - 4pm

The Hive

👨🏻‍🪶🌳 The Big Bio Soc Eco Swap Event: Swap, Sustain, and Support Movember! 📚🛍️

Join us for a fantastic community swap where you can declutter your closets and find new-to-you treasures for absolutely free! This is your chance to participate in the circular economy, fight fast fashion, and give your quality, pre-loved items a second life.

It's guilt-free shopping that benefits your wallet and the planet, with the added benefit of supporting men's health!

📍 Event Details

Date: Tuesday, November 21st
Time: 11:00 AM – 4:00 PM
Location: The Hive / Exhibition Space
Entry: FREE, with a suggested donation to our Movember fundraiser
Donation: Voluntary cash donations collected on-site for Movember (Men's Health)
Remember to bring: Your own reusable tote bag for your new finds!

♻️ How the Swap Works

Bring: Collect your gently used items (see guidelines below) that you no longer need.
Drop & Sort: Drop off your items at our welcome station upon arrival. Our volunteers will sort and display them across the Exhibition Space.
Browse & Take: Once the swap is underway, you are free to browse all the categories and take home whatever you love. You do not need to bring an item to take an item!

🔍 What You Can Bring & Find

We welcome a wide variety of goods to swap, keeping them out of landfill:

Clothes & Accessories: Clean, ready-to-wear clothing for all ages, shoes, handbags, scarves, and jewellery.
Books & Media: Books, vinyl records, DVDs, and CDs in good condition.
Small Housewares: Mugs, vases, kitchen gadgets, small decorative items, and clean linens.
Toys & Games: Complete games, puzzles, and clean children's toys.

⚠️ Swap Guidelines: Quality Over Quantity

For a successful event, please help us by following these essential rules:

Condition: All items must be in good, clean, usable condition—something you would happily give to a friend. We cannot accept anything with stains, holes, missing parts, or items needing repair.
Limit: Please limit your contribution to a maximum of 10–15 quality items to ensure a manageable collection.
