In an effort to support local families to access affordable uniform, promote sustainability and combat clothing waste we launched our School Uniform Exchange Project. Designed so that very wearable second-hand or new surplus donated uniform can find a new home even just until your child inevitably grows again! 

​

At up to 95% off the RRP price - the uniform is extremely affordable:

​​

General Pricing: 

£0.50 - Good Condition (used but with barely visible marks/signs of wear but still very wearable)

£1.00 - Excellent Condition (like new or excellent condition) or for shoes

£1.50 - New (e.g. with tags or in original packaging)

£2.00 - Blazers

​

​Visit our new shop where a selection of uniform is available to buy in-store in our Revive Charity shop section! Uniform is now also available online to buy and collect! Just order your items and await the 'pickup ready email' to collect your order from The Social Supermarket (2 Sherwood Parade, Rainworth, NG21 0JP)

​

WHY?

This initiative started when local teachers highlighted how parents were struggling with the rising cost of living & not being able to afford uniform for their children. To tackle this, we have partnered with local schools to simultaneously support parents with uniform costs, whilst also making a small contribution to supporting our services such as continuing to provide free youth clubs & projects that the same local children can attend.

 

Holding the exchange in an environment like our Social Supermarket means parents can access uniform as well as support, and be signposted to other services, such as an affordable food shop, Emergency Food Parcels, The Chatty Cafe, Courses & Events.

 

We will be providing a wide range of uniform donated by the schools, which vary in size, quality, logos/branding (or plain), including some brand new items & some secondhand. We are offering uniform up to 95% off it’s RRP 🤩 which is extremely good value for money!

 

All funds raised go towards youth projects such as: Juniors Youth Club, Seniors Youth Club, The Youth Community Fridge, Trips & Activities and other future projects and activities. We currently have stock from Kirklington Primary School, The Python Hill Academy & Lake View Primary School and more... Blidworth Oaks are also supporting this project & currently give away lost property for free on their site ❤️ To donate old uniform, this can be donated directly to The Social Action Hub or The Social Supermarket (2 Sherwood Parade). Or you can contact your child’s school directly or email info@socialactionhub.com / call 01623 490498

 

Any additional donations will be extremely appreciated ❤️ Thank you to everyone involved from the schools who made this possible!
