Uniform Donations

Are you looking to make a difference in your community this summer?

Exciting news! Exchange Ilford, in collaboration with inIlford, is launching its very own Pre-Loved School Uniform Shop!

♻️ With UK school uniforms generating over 350,000 tonnes of textile waste every year, this new initiative is all about helping local families and the planet. Expect great quality uniform items from just £2, making back-to-school shopping easier on wallets and way more sustainable!

🛍️ Additionally, spend £10 or more on launch day and bag yourself a FREE tote bag- perfect for carrying your preloved treasures (while stocks last!).

Got outgrown or unused school wear? Help keep the circle going by donating it to Exchange Ilford’s newly renovated Donation Station on Level 2.

This is a fantastic chance to support the local community, cut waste, and shop smarter.

Exchange Ilford is proud to be partnering with an array of wonderful local organisations to provide donation drop-off points, including:

📍City Gates Church, 25 – 29 Clements Road, IG1 1BH

📍Fullwell Cross Library, 140 High Street, Barkingside, IG6 2EA

Volunteers

We are keen to work with local community members in two ways. As we receive the uniforms we will require support in sorting them from our various drop of locations. We may also require support to manage the Pre-Loved Shop on sale days. If interested, click on the book now button so we can make contact through your details.
