We aim to promote pride, dignity and self-esteem in children from families experiencing financial hardship in Edinburgh by providing good-quality school uniform and other clothing, equipment and supplies required for the school day.The families we aim to help often struggle to clothe and feed their children, and for many a new school uniform is out of reach. We want to help the poorest children in our society go to school with some dignity and with the right kit to get the most out of their education.We raise funds and collect donations to source school uniform and other essentials like pencil cases and gym bags. Professionals such as social workers and head teachers as well as community groups like Women’s Aid and Young Carers refer children or teenagers to us and let us know what is needed. We don’t receive any details about the youngsters, just basic information such as age/size. Please donate to help us support as many families as possible.
