I have a 5 year old with sensitive skin who needs all cotton school trousers. The shops that normally sell them i.e. M&S, Nigel's Eco Store etc are out of stock. Anyone know of anywhere else that still has them for a 5 year old boy please [that aren't too pricey]??

Worth calling our local stores to check their stock. I share your frustration, my daughter has severe eczema and its been a nightmare. Her uniform is grey, I've had to opt for black as her skin has to be my priority with reoccurring infections. It's a horrible business this polyester uniform!


Good luck xx

I had the same problem last year. In the end, I even ordered the girls SkinKind trousers from M&S which just about fit! But those look out of stock too :(


I also made him some (very simple) trousers, so not sure if you have a sewing machine lying around...?


Hopefully your school is quite understanding, and maybe if you find ordinary grey cotton trousers (chinos, cords?) until M&S restocks?

    • An update, and at the bottom of the article ways to get involved and have a voice. National 'conversation' responses close 14th Jan.  https://www.specialneedsjungle.com/leaks-denials-fake-conversations-not-inspire-parental-confidence-send/ Closer to home, Councillor Ali has conducted a review of parent and child experiences of exclusions in Southwark and reports back to those who contributed at a dated TBC in January. If it is a date which I can attend then I'll share feedback. If not, is anyone else going who could let me know what is said?
    • I’m not an expert either but surely having that high of affordable housing would seem like a terrible investment. My guess is that they will pay southwark a fine then make the rest of it student housing too
    • For some strange reason, hubby likes to spend 'big' on family cards birthday and Christmas. I think it may have stemmed from his mother- she equated money with status and was a bit of a snob!  She was also quite eccentric - we asked for a suitcase one year and got a set of 4. One year she gave hubby the equivalent of a hearing aid - it was a device to hear bird song. Nobody we know send expensive cards. We have a twice yearly set of cards from the Foot and Mouth Painting Artists and have done for the last 30 plus years. I think they are around £12 for set of 10  - cannot remember what we paid this winter but they are fantastic value and beautiful paintings.  One of the best places around to buy cards is the Fair Trade Centre at Christ Church Barry Road. Fantastic selection with a starting price of £1.30.
