Community Swap Shops Toolkit

The Community Swap Shops Toolkit is a practical guide to setting up and running successful local Swap Shops; events where people come together to share, reuse, reduce waste, and save money.

Full of templates, checklists and practical advice, it’s designed to save you time, and help you feel confident bringing swapping your community. 

Whether you’re part of a local council, school, community or faith group, or simply someone with a passion for helping people and the planet, this guide walks you through every step, from planning your first Swap to growing it into a regular community fixture.

Created by Sam Drury Shore, a sustainability consultant and founder of Devizes Swap Shop, this toolkit draws on years of real-world experience building community events that are impactful, as well as being great fun.
