Did you know that £600 of unused clothing sits in every wardrobe in Haslemere? And that £140m worth of clothing goes into landfill each year? Love Haslemere Hate Waste's latest campaign - Love Style Hate Waste - exists to change that.
How does it work? If you have any high quality, pre-loved clothing that could be loved by someone else, please donate your items to Oliver's Cafe, Charter Walk, Haslemere or contact us to arrange COVID safe delivery. Fantastic donations have already been received, including a stunning Whitley wool jacket from local resident and award-winning actor, Hugh Bonneville, and an array of beautiful dresses that are brand new with tags, and unworn.
You can also receive your own unique styled outfit from a selection of our donations. In partnership with Instagram sensation, Spinning Old Into Gold, we're providing a bespoke styling service in exchange for a monetary donation. Donate either £5 or £10 and answer some simple questions about your style to receive two handpicked items in return. Just visit www.lovehaslemerehatewaste.co to shop your new style.
As well as highlighting the value in swapping our pre-loved clothing, the Love Style Hate Waste event is raising vital funds for a new Repair Café. The community centred project aims to repair items that would otherwise be thrown away. From toasters to televisions, bikes to bracelets, the Repair Café will bring together volunteer fixers to support the community to re-claim, recycle and learn more about how to mend their own items.
Our focus is to grow this space to become a place of value where you can contribute, learn, teach, share & feel engaged in community life. Our vision is to create a space for the community and support you to create something amazing within it.
