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?

    • Had a great experience with Paul. He sorted out a lighting issue we had very efficiently and I would highly recommend him! https://www.checkatrade.com/trades/edgleycontracting382245

    • A new roadmap (surely railmap?!) for rail accessibility has been published: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/accessible-railways-roadmap It says "approximately 56% of stations and around 66% of the 1.3 billion journeys that take place on the network have step-free access to platforms...  "£373 million has been committed over the next 5 years to deliver Access for All projects, providing step-free access from station entrances to and between platforms, alongside other essential accessibility upgrades. These works, together, will increase the number of step-free stations across Great Britain from 56% to 58%. "This improvement will make travel easier with step-free access available at stations covering an increased share of total rail journeys – from 66% up to 71%" Don't know what that means for us here: upgrading Peckham Rye would cover a lot of rail journeys but the cost has no doubt increased from the £40m figure previously quoted. So that would eat into a lot of the funding.
