            <description><![CDATA[May 14, 2010 Lyme Regis Football Club, The Davey Fort, Charmouth Road, Lyme Regis, Dorset This is our first Swishing event and hopefully the first of many.

You bring your unwanted clothes and accessories, such as skirts, trousers, dresses, shirts, hats, bags, shoes and  jewellery, to exchange for tokens which you then spend on other items people have contributed to the Swish.

Swishing your surplus items allows you to boost your wardrobes potential. Naturally, only items in good condition will be accepted, no fashionista wants cast-offs that have seen better days!

Please bring your clothes, on hangers if possible, and lots of your friends to join the fun. Ladies clothes only.

Bar, Cocktails and Nibbles available.

Tickets Â£5 in advance includes a free glass of wine, please contact zoeevans@me.com for tickets or futher details.

All proceeds goes to Lyme Regis Football Club.]]></description>

            <link>http://www.swishing.org/events/191</link>
            <description><![CDATA[March 23, 2010 The Crown Tavern, 43 Clerkenwell Green, LONDON  Get ready to swishâ¦â¦Spring clean your wardrobe for Â£5

Come and refresh your wardrobe, enjoy a few drinks and support a great charityâ¦complete guilt free fun!!

How? Basically we all raid our wardrobes for three gorgeous pieces that you no longer wear and swap for other lovely pieces in return. Anything goes, shirts, tops, skirts, dresses, jumpers, cardies, shoes, bags, jewelleryâ¦.anything you think deserves a good home. 

Rules of the Rail:
1) Every lady must bring at least one good quality, clean item of clothing, or an accessory, that she\'d feel proud to hand on. Each guest receives a ticket per item to âbuyâ other clothes
2) You will have half an hour to browse before the swish opens.
3) No item may be claimed before the swish opens.
4) As soon as the swish is declared open, everyone can âbuyâ items with their tickets.
5) Remember no scratching, spitting or fighting. 

P.s Anything that was in the charity donation bag donât worry too much about. Just to keep the swap as fair as possible.  

Why? Iâm asking for a donation of Â£3-5 to take part. All the money raised will go to YouthNet http://www.youthnet.org/, an online charity that supports young people at some of the most critical and vulnerable points in their lives. 

Since 1995, YouthNet through TheSite.org. has been providing help, advice and information to these young people, however, times, technology and young people have changed and so must TheSite.org. This appeal aims to achieve this change and truly revolutionise online support for young people.  This is also part of my Brighton Marathon appeal http://www.justgiving.co.uk/Charlotte-Hayes.

            <description><![CDATA[February 25, 2010 @Fern Avenue Join us @Fernavenue, our new permanent residence for daisy green events for an evening of Swapping and Shopping.

Donate up to 15 items of your very best clothing and accessories to the swap and you can take away the equivalent number of items with you at the end of the evening.

This very exclusive shopping emporium lends itself to a very exclusive swap and so please donate only the very best quality high street clothing to the swap; ensuring everyone takes away something special.

If you have other items deemed unsuitable for the swap, we will pop them straight into a bag for our nominated charity Willow Burn Hospice.

And when you aren't swapping you can be shopping as @FernAvenue has the most beautiful selections of cosmetics, jewellery, homewares and much more besides.

Doors open at 17:30 for dropping of your clothes donation and shopping.

Get a bottomless cup of tea or coffee for Â£1.50.


Tickets are available now at Â£5 (with a 50p booking fee).

Tickets on the door will be Â£7.

The Swap and Shop has a limited number of places available so book now to avoid disappointment. Go to http://www.daisygreenevents.co.uk/calendar/event/11 to secure your ticket (there are only 40 available)
