As part of In Our Nature we’re teaming up with Future Fashion Fair and the Wai Yin Society to offer a free workshop to help groups and organisations in Manchester run their own clothing Swap Shops.
What? In the workshop Futre Fashion Fair will cover:
- Introduction to Future Fashion Fair CIC, Sustainable Fashion and Swap Shops
- Choosing the Right Space and Layout
- Understanding Materials and Equipment Needed
- Managing Stock and Customer's Expectations
- Promoting Your Swap Shop
Who? We have 15 places available for the workshop and spaces will be allocated on a first come, first served basis. This workshop is aimed at people who will be able to pass on their newfound knowledge to others in their community, therefore we ask only one person per organisation signs up.
When? Future Fashion Fare will be running the workshop on the 17th of January 10 – 12pm.
Where? The sessions will be held at the Wai Yin Welcome Centre in Cheetham Hill – https://maps.app.goo.gl/nK6kwp1mV5EZ5taQ8
