Green Libraries Week events

Green Libraries Week takes place every October, celebrating how libraries can support sustainability in their communities.

Join us for free events and activities throughout the week.

Halloween costume swap for kids!

Do you have costumes that your child has grown out of? Reluctant to spend money on an outfit that will only be worn once?

The week before Halloween we will be helping all witches, ghouls, and princesses to find their perfect look without resorting to fast fashion or eyeholes in an old bed sheet.

All costumes must be clean and suitable for children.

• Dates: Saturday 24 to Friday 30 October 2026
• Location: Twickenham Library

Get swishing with a clothing swap

This event has been cancelled.

Swishing is so simple. Just bring in your unwanted clothing garments for children or adults and exchange them for tokens; then come back later to choose alternative items to take home and enjoy.
