empowering through education
Empowering young people to be responsible clothing consumers is a core part of our activity at ApparelXchange.
This has been limited due to the impacts of COVID-19 and new operations at schools.

NEW FOR 21/22!
TEACHING FAIR FASHION
AXC SCHOOL RESOURCE
We have developed our own Fair Fashion Learning & Activity Resource to complement and enrich our ongoing work within the education sector. The Pack contains two central activities, for Primary and Secondary stages, as well as extensive supporting resources, educational signposting, digital learning and classroom implementation plans.
Email marybeth@apparelxchange.co.uk to request your FREE Fair Fashion Pack. We're excited to see what your young people come up with!
we work with schools providing;

reuse services for clothing, donation drives & managing
lost property
We supply schools with donation bins, materials and all the advice needed to make donation drives happen, collecting everything from uniform, party wear, trainers, and more. These are a fantastic way of getting pupils and the community involved in carbon reduction activities. We also help ensure lost property gets the care or repair it needs and goes on to find a new home.
Are you interested in becoming an AXC Partner School? Great!
