How to Pay

As 100% of the ticket cost is a donation to Starfish this is a convenient way for you to pay and for us to contact you with further details and make a record of your name and your friends name of the guest list for entry on the night.

Please ensure that you do these things:

Make a donation on this page for the total amount of tickets you would like to buy i.e £15 = 1 person,  £30 = 2 people.

When you make your donation you will be prompted with a tick box that allows Starfish to see your contact details.  PLEASE TICK THIS BOX so that we can send you further details of the evening and take names of any friends that you are paying for. If we do not have your name you will not be able to gain entry on the night, so don't be anonymous!

We will not add you to a mailing list unless you agree to this in later correspondance.

Please do NOT Gift Aid your donation.

Once your donation has been made Starfish will be in touch to confirm your name/s on the guest list. You are then officially ready to Swish!

More about Swishing

What to bring There must be things in your wardrobes, cupboards and drawers that you just never wear. So whether it be shirts, tops, skirts, dresses, jumpers, cardies, trousers, coats, jackets, shoes, handbags, necklaces or scarves then simply bring them to be swapped 1 for 1 for some lovely new pieces for your wardrobe. 

What not to bring As we like to keep the exchange as fair as possible, please leave at home the shabby old bits that you aren’t wearing simply because they are worn out. Please bring between 3 and 10 clean quality items that you would be proud to pass on.

Why should I go? Swishing is a sociable, fun, exciting eco-chic way of shopping. You can refresh your wardrobes and feel fabulous with your newly exchanged finds. With a wide selection of items to choose from you and your girlfriends can be sure to enjoy an evening of fun, fashion & treats in style.
