About this event

We're taking thrifting to the next level. Buy your ticket to one of the most anticipated events of the year - the Reuse Fair! You'll have your pick of 100s of essential university items donated by students last year, for the small price of £2 (early slots) or £1 (later slots). 

We get it, adulting can be a total maze. But this event? It's about to make your like so much easier... and more sustainable! 

To take away items you must have booked a 30 minute slot!

Secure ASAP because this will go fast. You can bring a +1, but only those with tickets may take items, capped at 5 per person. 

Please show up 15 minutes before your chosen time slot. 

Items you can expect to find are;

  • Duvets, sheets, pillows & towels
  • Crockery and kitchenware
  • Stationery & Electricals 
  • Toiletries
  • Other useful items (i.e. clothing hangers)


Queen Mary University & Students’ Union run the Reuse project to help all students work together to: save money, take care of our planet by reducing waste, limit resource use & lower carbon emissions.

If you'd like to help out with running the Reuse Fair, please complete our volunteering form.
