Horse Week: Mossvale Riding Club hosts cash for clobber event as part of Great Big Green Week
MEMBERS and supporters are being asked to bring wearable preloved clothing any club night between now and 13 June.
Items can include clothing, paired shoes, hats, belts and scarves.
A local textile recycling firm will weigh the clothes, and the payment received will go the Kevin Bell Repatriation Trust, Mossvale’s charity of the year.
Sara McCracken of Mossvale Riding Club said: “Great Big Green Week is the UK’s biggest celebration of action for nature and climate, and keeping clothes out of landfill is a fantastic way of reducing waste and helping our environment.
“It is great that we can tie in this fundraising event to Great Big Green Week.
“We want to raise as much money as possible for the Kevin Bell Repatriation Trust which, sadly, has come to the aid of some of our members.”
Anyone who wants to get involved should contact Mossvale Riding Club through the club’s Facebook group.
