Mums of the Hills needs your help to keep running our hub, events, programs and advocacy that aim to reduce the factors that create isolation in our area. To do this, we're raising funds through our BIG Swap.

They say we use only 20% of the clothes in our wardrobe, 80% of the time. That’s a whole lot of clothes that aren’t getting a lot of love. Then think about the number of books and toys you have that are no longer used.

This is your chance to refresh your toy box or book shelf or wardrobe. So get a group of friends together a come along to this fantastic staple on the MotHs Events calendar.

You wanted a bigger venue. You got it! This time, we’re hold our swap at the biggest community hall in the hills. We have to pay for the venue, so we’ve needed to add ticket price but it’s small compared to the savings you’ll make.
