Bag2School: Fundraise and earn money for your unwanted clothes and textiles

The Bag2School scheme encourages staff, pupils and parents to donate their unwanted textiles so that they can be reused by someone else.

Schools are paid in accordance to the weight of your collected textiles: £500 per tonne/50p per kg.  This scheme can act as a vital source of free fundraising for schools and are often very successful when run in conjunction with envrionmental events at school such as Eco Week and Recycle Week.  

Bag2School provide you with free collection bags and will collect your bags of textiles from you free of charge.

For more information, please visit www.bag2school.co.uk (external website)

 Recycling and reusing not only reduces the amount of waste sent to landfill but students learn the message of reusing and recycling whilst actively doing so.

What can go in the collection bags? Adults and childrens clothes, paired shoes, hats, belts, bedding, curtains, soft toys and handbags.  Items must be in good condition and dirty or wet textiles will not be accepted.
