Clothes Swap
Our next quarterly Clothes Swap is on Sunday 10th November!
If you have clothes you no longer need, or if you'd like to pick up something new at no cost, join us for our quarterly Young Queers' Clothes Swap! Browse, connect, and enjoy an afternoon in the company of other Queers all while helping to reduce clothing waste.
​
If anything you bring isn't snapped up we will happily donate it to a charity on your behalf. Otherwise, you're welcome to donate them yourself or take them back.
​
You can bring along as much or as little clothing as you like. There is no minimum nor maximum.
​
You don't actually have to bring anything at all as we will have plenty of donations from corporate partners to supplement the swap. YES, you read it right - we will have a lot of brand-new clothing alongside the swap items.
Mosaic’s residentials provide you with an opportunity to get away from the hustle and bustle of your daily routine, as well as to join an accepting, friendly and fun LGBT+ community. You will have the chance to make friends, enjoy great activities, soak up the atmosphere, and learn valuable skills.
Each trip is different and unique, meticulously planned by our friendly LGBT+ mentors who are here to support you throughout the journey. You don’t have to be a member of Mosaic to participate, as every trip is open to all young LGBT+ persons from across the UK and beyond! Usually, 50% of the participants are from Mosaic and 50% from outside, so there is no need to feel awkward.
All retreats are delivered in buildings hired exclusively for our use with gender-neutral facilities so that you can feel safe and relaxed.
All accommodation is in mixed dorm rooms divided by age.
All participants must join us at the departure point in London, King’s Cross.

Flooding in LGBT+ Young Persons' Centre
Even flooding in our centre can't ruin our Pride Month, but we need the community to help us balance our books!​
On the morning of February 16th, Mosaic Trust’s Director Lukasz walked into our centre in Camden to a truly nasty shock – the entire building was flooded! A water tap on the side of the building had apparently been ripped out of the wall by individuals unknown, breaking the internal pipes and causing water to pool across our centre’s ground floor. As we do every half-term, Mosaic was in the midst of offering a packed week of activities and events for our members, young LGBT+ persons aged 12-18 and 18-25, but now we didn't have anywhere to host our programming! We had to think fast to ensure there was no interruption to our services.​​
Mosaic needs your help!
While our clever Services Manager Klara adapted our schedule of events to work around the unexpected disaster –with our young persons none the wiser – Lukasz was discovering the extent of the damage. All of the floors would have to go, and so hardwood and carpet was ripped up overnight. Mere days later, our weekly young persons’ club was run in a centre with concrete floors, but the noise of echoing voices was unbearable - especially for our neurodivergent members. We needed to replace the flooring as soon as possible.
In line with our longtime commitment to reducing our organisation’s impact on the environment, Lukasz finally found carbon neutral carpeting that may even be an improvement on the flooring we had before the flood. With the new carpet installed, services could carry on as normal – with marked improvement to the acoustics – but our yearly budget took a real beating as a result of the large unexpected cost.
That’s why we are asking our community of supporters, partners, and community members to help us recoup the costs of our aquatic mishap. We are seeking £8000, the equivalent cost of the flooding cleanup and removal, emergency electrical work, and the carpet and its installation. While the funds won’t go directly to paying for the new flooring (that ship has already sailed), funds raised as part of this appeal will go toward ensuring we do not have to make any cuts or changes to our regular extensive offer of programmes and services for young LGBT+ Londoners.
​
​For 23 years, Mosaic Trust has been committed to building a strong and cohesive LGBT+ community that is safe, free from prejudice, and thriving – a community where every LGBT+ young person feels empowered, inspired and proud of who they are. Help us continue to carry out that vision by donating today. Any amount helps!
In joining Mosaic I felt like I was myself more and more. I’ve gone from hating the gay part of myself to loving myself and never giving this identity up for anything. The workshops have opened my eyes up to how beautiful the community really is in a way that isn’t shared in schools.

I've been going to Mosaic for 3 years now and I can honestly say I wouldn't be the same person if I had never gone. The mentors are friendly and make sure everyone is safe, and the whole environment feels like a big family. It's helped me with my confidence and with my understanding of other peoples experiences.

While I was a uni student in London unable to afford to do anything but pay my rent and buy the bare essentials, Mosaic gave me the opportunity to take part in so many wonderful events from which I have learned a great deal and also helped me out with meals. Mosaic and it's associated mentors and young persons have truly changed my life in such a short amount of time and continue to give me much needed support and a routine during lockdown.
