Bag2School collection success

Our super successful Bag2School fundraiser has raised £100 for our school fund, thanks to all your kind donations.

Bag2School buys unwanted clothing from schools in a bid to help them raise money. The clothes are then shipped to Eastern Europe where a wholesaler then sorts them and sells them to market traders. 

Every year UK consumers dispose of 1.13 million tonnes of clothing and shoes of which; 540,000 tonnes are reused overseas, 160,000 tonnes recycled, 80,000 tonnes are incinerated and 350,000 tonnes end up in landfill.

Bag2School is a good way to dispose of unwanted clothing whilst helping raise money for your school 

We have been amazed by the amount of clothing we have collected - thank you for your help.
