Opportunity to get new dresses at swap event
A REPORTER who has been blogging about her quest to wear a different dress every day for a whole year is holding a clothes "swap shop".
The Harborough Mail's Elinor O'Neill (26), of Burnmill Road, Harborough, has been writing a blog every day since January 1 this year.
Miss O'Neill will be selling all the dresses to raise money for mental health charity Mind.
As she cannot buy any dresses herself she is appealing for help from shops and Harborough residents.
In an attempt to bolster dress supplies she will be having a clothing swap shop on Monday (July 26) at the Oat Hill pub in Kettering Road, Harborough.
Guests will have the chance to exchange unwanted or unworn clothes and accessories with "swappers".
To participate bring one dress, size 10-12. Entry is 3 and includes drink and cake.
Anyone wishing to take part can bring as much or as little as they like but must leave with only as many items as they brought.
The event will start at 6.30 pm though swapping wont get started till 7.30, be there early to register.
Miss O'Neill said: "I've been to swap shops before and they are great fun but scary if you haven't got your wits and elbows about you."
