FRAAS has organised a clothes & shoe collection with Bag2School - bag2school.com Bag2School is the UK’s leading textile recycler and fundraiser working with schools. As well as raising funds for FRAAS, it also helps the environment by helping to divert good quality unwanted textiles away from landfill. By getting involved in our Bag2School collection, you have an opportunity to sort through your cupboards and wardrobes and donate good quality unwanted textiles in any plastic bag/bin liner - this can include adults’ and children’s clothes, shoes (tied together please), hats, belts and handbags, (please refer to bag2school_what-we-collect for full details). Please bring your bag (or bags!) to our purple uniform bin next to the bus shelter in the St Andrews car park on the following dates at the bottom of this page.
