Volunteering

Volunteering with Change Clothes

Our volunteers are at the heart of everything we do. They help us run our Swap Shop and Scrap Store, along with supporting our community projects.

If you have sewing skills, whether using a domestic sewing machine or hand sewing, you can help repair and mend garments, helping to keep clothes in use for longer.

Our volunteers also support external events, share their skills, and help create positive experiences for people in our community. Whether you can spare a few hours occasionally or would like to get involved on a regular basis, we’d love to hear from you.

Every hour, skill, and contribution makes a real difference
