The scheme giving away free uniforms - and the date of its next pop-up shop
Established as a charity, LSUE aims to relieve any social stigma attached to wearing second hand uniform, even if the items themselves are clean, functional and have no visible snags or excessive wear.
Its founders were inspired to act after they got talking in September 2018 about how some families in Leeds were struggling to afford school uniform, yet one school was so overwhelmed with lost property that it was throwing perfectly good items in a skip. After launching in summer 2019, they found there was a vast amount of good quality school uniform in wardrobes, cupboards and drawers that other families were only too happy to be able to pass it on.Summer holiday pop-up shops- Wednesday August 17: Armley Park, Stanningley Road- Monday August 22: Bramley Park, Westover Road- Friday September 2: East End Park
