Kids' Wardrobe & Toy Refresh

We wish to advise that the Wardrobe Refresh event scheduled for Sunday, 3 May 2026 has been cancelled.

The Town regrets that this decision is necessary. With several major projects currently underway, including the rollout of the FOGO service to multi-unit dwellings, staff capacity is fully committed and we are unable to deliver the event in May.

Wardrobe Refresh may be reinstated in the 2026/27 financial year, subject to budget availability and staff capacity.

Thank you for your continued attendance and support of this event. Your contribution has been greatly appreciated, and we hope to reconnect with you in the future.

Join us for our Kids' Wardrobe & Toy Refresh!

Please join us for Cambridge's Children's Wardrobe and Toy Refresh up to size 12, including clothing, accessories, shoes, toys, games, books etc.

Recycle the things your kids no longer love and enjoy picking out some new items that they do.

Save your money for experiences instead of wasting it on fast fashion and help out the planet!

Everything left over is donated to charity...

How does it work?

Clear out your kids' wardrobes, drawers and storage of items that are too big, too small, too daggy or they just won't wear or don't use.

Pre-prepare:

Bring your things already sorted into different categories:

For the racks: Dresses, jackets, dress pants, suits, skirts, shirts etc should already be on hangers ready for you to pop on the clothes racks;
For the tables: Casual pants, jeans, t-shirts, shorts, exercise gear, shoes, bags, toys/books etc will have tables allocated to them. Please sort them in their categories to make it easier for you to place on the clearly marked tables.

On the day:

Register at the desk;
Weigh your incoming bags (so we know how much textile waste we are saving from landfill);
Hang your items (which will already be on hangers) on the racks;
Place your items that can go on tables according to their clothing types;
Browse the racks for items you need!!

We will have spare hangers and a sorting table for those who couldn't pre-prepare. In this case - use the table to sort, hang using our clothes hangers, then hang your items and place on the racks set up around the event. There will be staff to assist you on the day.
