As you already know, Preloved is all about the joy of Second Hand, and on April the 27th, Preloved brought the community together to celebrate National Second Hand Day.

3. The Preloved Vintage Fair
Preloved loves all things vintage, and so do many Preloved members, so we decided to hold our very own Vintage fair in Manchesters Northern Quarter at the Night & Day Cafe. The event took place on the 29th September and saw over 300 people attend to enjoy browsing the vintage stalls, listening to the music and getting their hair styled in Vintage rolls. You can see the full photo album here.
