A SNOW gear swap shop held at the Oratory School in Woodcote raised £240 for Launchpad, a Reading homelessness charity.
Members of the public were invited into the independent school to buy pre-loved ski items including salopettes, fleeces and beanies.
Twenty per cent from each sale was donated to the charity with more than £1,000 worth of sales made.
The event was organised by the Friends of the Oratory School and the parent teacher association.
