Following the Covid-19 outbreak, we have been closely following the advice of the Health Authority regarding large scale events. As such, we have made the difficult decision to cancel our event on Saturday 21st March . We understand that this is disappointing, but as a socially responsible organisation, the wellbeing of our members and volunteers is always our first priority. After all, it is just clothes. . . . . #socialresponsibility #covid_19 #leeds #lds #clothesdeservetobeworn #dressinghappy #nonewclothes2020 #sustainablefashion #secondhandfashion #swapdontshop #lovedclotheslast #lovefashionhatewaste #giveback #nonprofit #givingback #makeadifference #philanthropy #socialgood #givingbacktothecommunity #socialimpact #community #localcharity #dogood #helpothers #bethechange #supportlocal #bethechange #wisewords #wisewordstoliveby

How can we wear feminist slogan t shirts if they have been manufactured in modern salvery? Is that bringing women to the front across the globe? . 80% of the world's garment workers are women. It is these women who deserve our respect and support most of all! We can all help support these women by demanding equal and fair pay through consumer action and supporting brands that champion transport supply chains! . Happy International Women's Day 2020 from Leeds Community Clothes Exchange!! . . . . #internationalwomensday #Iwd #iwd2020 #bethechange #beboldforchange #ethicalfashion #sustainablefashion #ecofashion #sustainability #Fairtrade #fairtradefashion #womensupportingwomen #empowerwomen @fash_rev

We are loving how simple and classic this outfit is @konfina_reuse is showing that secondhand can provide clean and modern style. . Most second hand clothes do not even need a makeover. Take this outfit for example. .

We are so pleased to have been featured in the Fast x Slow Fashion exhibition at Leeds City Museum, which explores fashion shopping habits oover 300 years. . We selected an outfit from our exchange to contribute to the exhibition. It was also really pleaseing to see an item from 'Hyde Park Christmas' (scroll to the last image) that had been found in the street. . . . . #fastxslowfashion #leedscitymuseum #fashionhistory #shoppinghabits #independentleeds #lds #leedslife #leedsleedsleeds #localhistory #whatsonleeds #englishhistory #westyorkshire #fiftyshades_of_history #iloveyorkshire #upnorth #yorkshirelove #historictextiles #leeds #sustainablefashion #swapdontshop #circulareconomy #circularfashion

Did you know we have a 'charity bank' scheme? If you have unwanted credits or just want to drop in your items but dont want to collect credits. . We can still collect them, give them out and spread the exchange love futher! . As a group/event we were set up with the intention of making an ethical fashion choice accessible to a large audience. We are part of a community and we want to give back to our community. . If you know of any charity or organisation that could benefit from this. Let them know, let us know and spread the word! . . . . #leeds #lds #leedsleedsleeds #leedslife #independentleeds #bethechange #giveback #dogood #leedscharities #leedsactivism
