Uniform Exchange is the Kirklees community school uniform bank. We serve the local community by recycling out-grown school uniform across Kirklees providing families with financial challenges and in crisis with FREE school uniform. We do this by encouraging families through the primary and secondary schools to recycle and donate their child’s out-grown school uniform to the project. The service is available to all families in Kirklees no matter what their circumstances.
In 2022 we:
Received over 45,000 items of used school uniform from local families
Helped over 5,500 children across Kirklees with free school uniform including school coats and shoes
Gave out over 1,500 coats at a winter coat exchange
Recycled over 35,000 items of good uniform to families
Stopped over 10 tonnes of unusable uniform going into landfill by recycling through Oxfam
Washed almost 3 tonnes of good, but dirty, school uniform
We have over 15,000 items of school uniform available to access plus more arriving every day!
