Wanting to do something fun (and a bit stupid) to raise money for charity I decided to start a swap chain.
I began with a News Shopper keyring, which I traded for membership of a local archaeology group - and I have continued bartering my way through bigger and better items.
I eventually hope to trade something for a cash donation of at least £1,000 to be given to a good cause.
You can read about my little adventure in this section. If you want to contact me at any time – preferably with a swap offer – drop me a line at sbull@london.newsquest.co.uk
