HMS PTA is working with Bag2School in order to raise funds to support learning experiences at HMS. Bag2School is the UK’s leading textile recycler and fundraiser working with schools. As well as raising funds for HMS, it also helps the environment by helping to divert unwanted textiles away from landfill. So sort through your cupboards and wardrobes and donate any unwanted items in a sturdy bag. Money raised is based on the weight of the clothing. HMS PTA will receive 40p per kg.
