Saturday 16th July 10am-1pm: Braunton Repair Cafe
Hosted by Plastic Free North Devon
The Braunton Repair Cafe is back, and our focus this time around is school uniform. According to research by My Nametags, 630,00 tonnes of school uniform gets thrown out every year in the South of England – eek! So please bring us your frayed cuffs and ripped school trousers. And if your child has outgrown their clothes and don’t have a sibling or a friend to hand them down to, why not check if the school has a second hand uniform shop that you can donate to.
You can also check out this great shoeSHARE initiative from UNICEF and Clarke’s to donate outgrown shoes for schoolchildren who need them:
