We are seeking funding to continue our established School Clothing Bank within our deprived community to support families affected by the ongoing cost of living crisis. The project provides good-quality new and pre-loved school uniforms, shoes, coats, and essential clothing items to children whose families are struggling financially. By reducing the burden of school clothing costs, the Clothing Bank will help ensure that every child can attend school with dignity, confidence, and a sense of belonging, while easing financial pressures on parents and carers.

Dingro Ltd support this Community Wish as part of their Scotland Excel Vehicle Parts contract. Jamie Owen from Camperdown Parent Council said 'This donation will make a real difference to our School Clothing Bank and, most importantly, to the families we support. Every contribution helps us provide children with the uniforms, shoes and coats they need to attend school with confidence and dignity. Being able to purchase items as and when they are needed, and make the most of sales and discounts, means every pound goes further and allows us to help even more families facing financial hardship. We are incredibly grateful for this support – it is an investment in our children, our families and our community."
