The cost of living crisis is pushing many families further into poverty. As parents make tough choices to cover the cost of heating and food, many are struggling to pay for their children's school uniform which cost an average of £337.
St Andrew's Youth Club, the Bessborough Family Hub and the Cardinal Hume Centre have come together to find a solution, to make sure children don't miss out on their education. We are launching a School Clothing Bank at St Andrew's Club, to provide any extra pieces of uniform that families cannot afford - to help ease the financial strain many families face.
With the average cost of maintaining a young person's school uniform for one year currently at £337, this is a crucial resource for those in need. Without the right uniform children feel excluded from the school community and can miss out on their education.
