Manly Community Clothes Swap

Manly Food Co-op, in partnership with Op for Change and Sammy & Sid are excited to present the August Manly Community Clothes Swap.

Give your wardrobe a fresh start - without spending a fortune or buying new.

Join us for a fun, sustainable morning where you can clear out the clothes you no longer wear and discover some fantastic new-to-you pieces for the season ahead. Every item swapped is one less item heading to landfill and one more finding a loving new home.

How it works

1. Gather your items:

Have a look through your wardrobe and choose between 3 and 10 quality clothing items or pairs of shoes that are clean, in excellent condition, and ready for someone else to enjoy.

2. Reserve your place:

Book your ticket to secure your spot.

3. Bring your items on the day:

Doors open at 9:00am for clothing drop-off. You'll receive one token for each accepted item.

4. Swap!

Return at 10:00am when the swap officially begins. Use your tokens to browse and take home the same number of items—it's like shopping, but completely circular!

Make a morning of it

While you're waiting for the swap to begin, your event ticket unlocks two exclusive offers:

☕ $3.50 coffee at Manly Deli to fuel your treasure hunt.

🛍️ Exclusive early access from 9:00am to browse Op for Change, plus 20% off your purchase.*

Supporting a great cause

Your $5 entry donation helps support the Northern Beaches Women's Shelter.

Refresh your wardrobe, reduce textile waste, support a local charity, and enjoy a great community morning - it really is a win for everyone.
