Berwickshire Swap

Berwickshire Swap aims to help fight poverty in our area by taking in donations of children’s clothes, toys and items. We then hold swaps around the area where people can come, pay a small fee and take what they need. Berwickshire Swap also provides emergency packages to identified children from the donations we receive. These parcels are washed, dried, ironed then packed before being handed to the children. Berwickshire Swap aims to create a circular economy by reducing the amount of items going to waste, and ultimately landfill. By taking in donations and holding swaps we keep perfectly good children’s items in our local communities.
