M&S Clothes Exchange

Oxfam and M&S have teamed up to help you support some of the poorest people around the world.

Just bring your unwanted M&S clothes or soft furnishings to an Oxfam shop and we'll exchange them for a £5 voucher* to use at M&S. It's a simple way to clear out your home, save money, reduce waste and raise heaps of money for Oxfam.

  • Since the Clothes Exchange started in January 2008, it's helped prevent over 2,500 tonnes of clothing going to landfill.
  • And selling the clothes in our shops has raised an extra £3 million for our work.
  • Not bad when you think just £5 provides safe, clean drinking water for eight people.


*Terms and conditions
You'll be given a £5 voucher for every donation you make which contains at least one item of M&S-labelled clothing (including shoes, handbags, belts, hats and scarves). Or M&S-labelled soft furnishings (bed linen, towels, cushions, curtains, throws, aprons, tablecloths and napkins).
This offer does not include donations of the following M&S clothing: swimwear, underwear, socks, or damaged or soiled items.
Only one voucher will be issued per visit.
Vouchers are subject to M&S's terms and conditions which include:
The voucher entitles you to £5 off your next purchase of £35 or more on clothing, home and beauty products in participating M&S stores.
In the Republic of Ireland the voucher will be worth €7 off purchases of €50 or more on clothing, home and beauty products.
Only one voucher can be used for each transaction of £35 (€50) or more. The voucher is redeemable only during the calendar month in which you receive it.
The voucher is not redeemable against M&S food.
