This Clothing Swap has been planned to take place at the end of Fashion Revolution Week, when we can all pause and think about where our clothes came from and where they are going. The Swap’s tagline says it all: 'Swap don’t Shop’!

This Clothing Swap has been planned to take place at the end of Fashion Revolution Week, when we can all pause and think about where our clothes came from and where they are going. The Swap’s tagline says it all: 'Swap don’t Shop’!

The Hopper Hub Clothing Swap is run by volunteers. I've been to the previous Swaps held at the Hub and along with most women and men there, I've come away with some cool clothes. Plus it was fun to see some of my stuff go to a good home!

You can see on the poster there is an interesting guest speaker from The Formary, and a yummy homemade afternoon tea on offer. There is also at least one mending and alteration workshop planned to run alongside the Swap. From prior swaps I can tell you there will be interesting new people to meet and chat with. Something for everyone!
You can email for more info: hopperhomeswap@gmail.com

To those that stopped to assist an elderly man who collapsed in Haitaiti...You are my hero's......I stopped because I have some medical training { must say I would stop anyway]} But 4-5 others where first !

I was amazed that 3 people had done first aid training and felt comfortable if it came to cpr, 2 had first aid kits We where joined by a Dr and her cab driver, nieghbours had contacted the mans wife and all but the man with a new born stayed till the ambulance arrived[ once all controlled]
I guess for me, in this time and place it feels good to be a citizen of Wellington and NZ. To see such compassion and caring Lights up The soul.
