Used Clothing Collection

In a collaboration with the RELEASE ⇔ CATCH project for collecting and recirculating used clothing, we will accept items of clothing that you no longer need to be passed on for reuse. We all have clothes that we no longer wear or that no longer suit us, but throwing away clothes that are still perfectly wearable is such a waste, so please bring them along and we’ll take them off your hands!
