Fri, 20 Mar 2026 School uniform reuse scheme launches in London

The School Uniform Reuse Network aims to help schools and families reduce waste and save money.
London Councils says this scheme has the potential to combat the stigma associated with second-hand clothing. The network aims to extend the lifespan of school uniforms and alleviate financial pressures on households by making it easier for families to pass uniforms on and purchase them second-hand. By promoting reuse and accessibility, London Councils hopes to make second-hand uniforms a standard across the city, benefiting schools, families, and the environment.
