Rag bag – Bags of clothes mean bags of cash !

We have bags at school (or any bag will do) to be filled with all and any clothing, textiles, shoes, handbags and accessories. Bring these to school and we will arrange for them to be collected. Every kg recycled will raise money exclusively for YOUR school.

If you can help, please contact us now... As well as funding for our ongoing operational costs, we are also seeking funding to enable us to meet the growing demand for our services. To do this, we will need to: provide additional sessions each week develop a new Outreach service increase our staff (classroom specialists and administrative support) purchase new and replacement equipment Any ideas or suggestions for fundraising events will be gratefully received. Just call the school office or send an email to office@ssfp.org.uk
