Shop and Swap: Turning Pre-Loved into Purpose

In partnership with Women With Altitude, we hosted two incredible Shop & Swap events, first in Leura on 1 November and then in Penrith on 8 November. 

Both events had a different vibe, yet the concept was simple but impactful. Attendees brought along gorgeous pieces from their wardrobe that deserved a second chance and exchanged them for new treasures to love. 

Beyond walking away with a new wardrobe, it was also about embracing a more sustainable approach to clothing, reducing the impact of fast fashion, and upcycling within our local community. These two events were a wonderful blend of connection, discovering new finds, and celebrating the joy of giving back. 

Everyone who attended felt the heart of the event and the incredible cause we were supporting to provide affordable cancer care. 

Together, we raised $1,800 across both nights, with all proceeds going directly to Cancer Wellness Support, helping local people and families living with cancer to access the care and support they need.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us, donated, and shopped. Your support makes all the difference in creating a sustainable and compassionate future for our local community!
