The Toy Swap event run by Quench Salisbury and Share Salisbury is back this Easter Holidays.
At the event, you can bring the toys that your kids no longer play with and swap them for ones for other toys they will love, and it’s all free.
The toy swap takes place at Quench on Newton Road, Churchfields, on Wednesday, the 5th of April, from 10 am until midday.
If you don’t want new toys, you can donate any unwanted toys for others to choose from, or you can come and choose toys without making a donation. There is a limit of five toys per child when taking them away.
One ticket covers each family group, so there is no need to book for each of your children.
Rachel, one of the organisers at Quench, said: “Toy Swap was birthed out of a desire to serve our community. It is run by Quench and Share Salisbury.
“We love how it addresses some of the most pressing issues that we face in society right now. Most notably the cost of living and our impact on the environment.
“Toy Swap enables families to find new homes for toys that they no longer need, want or have space for, in a way that is sustainable. It also enables families to provide different toys for their children for free.
“So many parents have commented to us how wonderful it is to be able to say yes to their children when they ask to take a toy home and how much they love seeing toys they have donated being chosen by other children to take home and love.”

There will also be refreshments available for a donation, so you are encouraged to take some change along.
