Join the Magic: Book Character Costume Swap at 17 & Central!

As World Book Day 2025 approaches on March 6th, we invite you to step into a world of creativity and community at 17 & Central in Walthamstow. To celebrate this cherished occasion, we're excited to announce our Book Character Costume Swap, where you can bring in old book character costumes and exchange them for new ones.

📅 Event Date: until March 6th, 2025

📍 Location: Guest Services Desk, down the corridor next to Black Sheep Coffee

Embrace the Circular Economy

Through costume swapping rather than purchasing new ones, breathe new life into these cherished outfits and not only minimizes waste but also encourages sustainability—benefiting both the planet and our community.

Save💷

Costume swapping is an excellent way to stick to your budget while making sure your child is prepared to celebrate World Book Day in style.

Discover New Characters

Swapping costumes opens the door to a wide array of book characters. From Harry Potter's iconic robes to the whimsical attire of Alice in Wonderland, you never know which character you might find!

How It Works:

- Bring Your Costume: Gather your child's old book character costumes and bring them to the Guest Services Desk, located down the corridor next to Black Sheep Coffee.

- Donate and Swap: Drop off your old costumes and browse through the selection donated by other parents. Find a new costume for your child and make this World Book Day one to remember.

Spread the Word:

Invite your friends, family, and fellow book lovers to join the swap. Let's make this event a celebration of stories, imagination, and community spirit!

Together, we can make a difference by embracing the circular economy, saving money, and ensuring that every child has a magical World Book Day. We can't wait to see you at 17 & Central for this enchanting costume swap!
