The UK’s biggest vintage kilo sale – Worth The Weight returns to Nottingham.

The event will be returning to St. Mary’s Church on Saturday 9 September with nine tonnes of handpicked vintage and pre-owned stock to have a rummage through.

Second Hand September is an initiative started in 2019 by Oxfam as a way to encourage people to reuse, recycle and reduce waste. Since then thousands of people have used the campaign to revamp their wardrobe in a way that helps our planet and reduces the impact of climate change.

There will be 60 rails of clothing, where shoppers can pick and mix from the best Denim, Sports, Ladies’ fashion, Men’s fashion, Outerwear and accessories and pay on the scales at the end. It costs £20 per kilo, with prices starting as little as £1. It’s a cost-effective way of getting bulk sustainable clothing and helping the environment at the same time.
