Christmas Jumpers

November 24th, 2025

Did you know in the UK each year we buy over 12 million Christmas jumpers?

To reduce clothing waste this Christmas, Veolia and Nottinghamshire County Council have partnered up with Inspire to organise a Nottinghamshire Christmas Jumper Swap campaign across some of the county’s libraries.

Nottinghamshire residents can donate their pre-loved Christmas jumpers at one of four drop off points at any of the venues below, up to and including 26th November:

  • Worksop Library
  • Beeston Library
  • Retford Library
  • Kimberley Library

All jumpers donated must be of good quality, wearable and clean.

Residents wishing to swap their pre-loved Christmas jumper for another can come along to either:

  • Worksop Library Christmas Market on 29 November between 9:30am – 2pm
  • Kimberley Library Christmas Market on 6 December between 10am – 1pm

We will have all of the jumpers we collected on clothes rails for people to choose from for free!

Any jumpers left over after the two events will be donated to local shelters, organisations and charities.

However, it’s not only Christmas when clothing is thrown away. In Nottinghamshire, over 70 tonnes of reusable clothes are thrown away each week. To see how else you can reduce textile waste visit the textile waste reduction webpage.

 

Thanks,
