SCHOOL'S NETWORK
Schools in the ApparelXchange network receive tailored support to help them make carbon reductions through school uniform reuse.
​
Resources & support for schools in our network
1. Donation Drives
We supply schools in the network with donation bins, marketing materials and all the advice needed to make school uniform donation drives happen.
​
School uniform donation drives are a fantastic way of getting pupils and the community involved in carbon reduction activities.
2. Learning sessions
Schools in the network receive learning sessions that empower young people to take action climate change whilst improving their carbon literacy skills.
3. Pop-Up Shops
By being in the network we can co-ordinate and run Pop-up School uniform shops in your school. These provide your community with a convenient way to try and buy affordable school uniform that doesn't cost the earth.
