Edinburgh School Uniform Bank receives ‘fantastic donation’

EDINBURGH School Uniform Bank have had another fantastic donation we would like to tell you about!

In January Luddon Construction got in touch to ask if we’d like a donation of clothing. They gave us 200 black hoodies, 150 warm hats and 100 pairs of gloves! Hoodies are regularly requested in our Clothing Crisis Packs as children and young people wear them in and out of school.

Perfect for the cold winter and spring we know all too well in Edinburgh!

Clare and Tanya were delighted to meet some of the Luddon team when they dropped off the donation.

Thank you so much, this really will make a difference!

Enhanced back to school support from Edinburgh School Uniform Bank

Edinburgh School Uniform Bank has taken another step forward in addressing the needs of children facing poverty by including stationery items in every clothing crisis pack.

This initiative comes in response to feedback from the Child Poverty Action Group Report on the cost of the school day.

By ensuring that children not only have access to proper school uniforms but also essential stationery, ESUB is helping to create a more level playing field.

This move will aid in reducing the stigma associated with poverty and enable children to focus on their education without the added worry of lacking basic school supplies, crucial for fostering an inclusive and supportive learning environment for all students.

This would not be possible without the generosity of our supporters! Thank you!
