SWOP and Local Opy are under the same umbrella. Each serve different purposes while working harmoniously with each other.
Local Opy was a natural progression for SWOP. We were already making donations to our local opportunity shop, and we too wanted a space that people could go to for a trendy bargain. But more so, we wanted to support the charities we believe in.
For clothes that don’t meet our SWOP criteria (we couldn’t buy them from you), there are two great options:
1. Repurpose: You can hold onto the un-sold clothes and repurpose them. For example, sell them at your local market, gift to a friend, cut into cleaning cloths, etc.
2. Donate: We can donate the un-sold clothes to our charity partners on your behalf. In Brisbane, you can choose for us to donate them to Local Opy!
The Australian Marine Conservation Society is Australia’s leading national charity dedicated solely to protecting our precious ocean wildlife.
By shopping at Local Opy over the next 3 months you’ll be helping to ensure Australia's coasts and oceans remain healthy and free for tomorrow's generations.
