A town charity is collecting donations of school uniforms to help families in the County. They normally just do Newton Aycliffe but throughout the year have had requests from other areas. Luckily they’ve had what people have needed and everyone has been really grateful for the help.

As its nearly the summer holidays founder Newtonian Sally Symons is hoping that when people are sorting their children’s uniforms out that they would consider helping families in need.

Please be assured we do not charge for any of the uniforms we give people and everything is kept confidential. If you can donate please contact: email-symons039@hotmail.com or phone 01325 313949. Sally works full time so please leave a message and we will get back to you asap.

Thank you to everyone who has continued to donate throughout the year as without you all this would not be possible – over the past year we have helped over 300 families.

If anyone has any plastic storage boxes they no longer need could you please consider donating them to us as we are running low.
