The School Uniform Swap: Helping Families and the Planet
The School Uniform Swap is back this year, offering a fantastic way for families in Oakham to save money, reduce landfill waste, and combat climate change. This initiative, organized by the Rutland Clothing Bank in collaboration with Oakham Tesco, makes it easier than ever to participate.
The swap event will be held on July 26th, from 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM at Oakham Baptist Church. It's a great opportunity to find gently used school uniforms for your children.
If you have school uniforms in good condition that your children have outgrown, please consider donating them. The appeal for donations starts this Saturday, June 14th, and runs until July 19th. This year, there's a convenient change: you can drop off your donations at the customer service desk at Oakham Tesco. Please ensure all donated uniforms are washed and placed in a bag.
The event organisers extend their thanks to Emma, Community Champion at Oakham Tesco, for her support in making this event possible.
