school-logo PE kit donation

[virgosuzie]

our school is looking to get rid of a big load of PE kit including jogging bottoms, polo t-shirts and fleece. The t-shirts and fleece have school logo on them. These have all plenty of wear left in them but have become obsolete due to the school changing their logo, colours, design, etc. The sizes range from age 4-11 years. Does anyone know any charity that might want these clothes? Any leads will be much appreciated to save these good quality items from a recycle bank or landfill. Thanks

It seems a pity that the school is not taking the responsibility to make sure clothes don't go to waste (landfill) and arnt used especially if good quality - perhaps the school committee could press the school to allow old stock to be used. in a time of fast fashion, it would be a good way for the school to led on this (rather than make it someone else's problem)

I do appreciate that you are trying to solve a problem

Our PSA are currently collecting our old style uniform and linking up with a charity who are shipping the uniform to Zambia in April. The charity is the Tag Rugby Trust.
