M&S and Oxfam Schwopping!
Posted by Jake Anders on May 2nd, 2012
Oxfam and M&S have teamed up to launch shwopping, a new idea that makes it even easier to give your unwanted clothes a second life. It will also help us raise an extra £2m to fight poverty over the next year alone.
- Donate your unwanted M&S clothes in Salisbury Oxfam shops and receive £5 off a £35 spend on clothing, home and beauty products in M&S stores and online. Terms and conditions apply.
- Donate your unwanted clothes to Oxfam at M&S. Take an item of clothing you no longer wear (even if it’s not from M&S) with you next time you pop into M&S to buy something new. Simply place your clothes into one of the ‘shwop drops’ located in all M&S stores. You can earn shwop ‘points’ each time you shwop by registering on M&S’s Facebook page
Don’t forget!
Even if you’re not looking for anything new, you can still donate your unwanted clothes to Oxfam in any M&S or Oxfam shop. You’ll get a good feeling knowing you’re helping to fight poverty.
Oxfam and M&S
Shwopping is the latest development in Oxfam’s longstanding partnership with M&S. Together, we’ve already raised more than £8 million to fight poverty – with your help, we can do even more.
Oxfam and M&S are perfect partners. M&S knows Oxfam makes the most of every donation. And here at Oxfam, we know M&S is committed to reducing the number of clothes that end up in landfill – plus they’re big supporters of our work fighting poverty.
However you choose to shwop – whether it’s by bringing your unwanted M&S clothes to Oxfam or by dropping off your old clothes at M&S when you buy something new – it’s an extremely convenient way to donate to Oxfam.
We believe that shwopping could become the new shopping – and we’re delighted to be working with M&S to make it so. We’ve set ourselves the ultimate goal of recycling as many clothes as M&S sell – hundreds of millions of clothes each year!
This April, Oxfam is launching the ‘Big Bra Hunt’, appealing women to dig deep into their drawers and donate their forgotten, spare and unwanted bras to Oxfam shops across the country throughout the month of April.
